Yepper. I got a peek under the show tent, and the view is good!

Man, been wanting one for some time. Finally decided to put my 1006 upfor sale to get one hopefully with a little left over for upgrades.

So yes, I will buy one!

NFW, thank you. Metal is better and steel is fantastic.

It will likely have a larger effect on the availability of magazines, grip modules, etc. The army guns will come out in lots. The pistol market is pretty soft right now, and will be for the next few years. Probably a good time for it. I'd stock up on any 320 magazines you think you may want though.

I just hope and pray the quality control does not slip on the rest of the Sig lineup. It IS a huge military contract.

Had two. Neither was reliable. Ejection issues and firing out of battery.

Yea, technically "you will buy a Sig 320" applies here too. Ufortunately, through 2 samples, with multiple trips back to Sig and one with a trip to GGI, neither was what I considered reliable enough. Malfunctions with factory ammo including premium self-defense rounds were experienced.

As much as I liked the feel of the gun and the concept, I won't be buying another with uber reliable alternatives like the P30, G19 in the safe.

I will not buy one. I have s safe full of classic pistols and I don't need more. I am sure it is a wonderful pistol. ]

I am on the hunt for a NM HK Mark23

SIG will either be a hero or zero here........

I've yet to even see one here in the Peoples Republic of California

Maybe someday..........

Oh? So there's a good comp in there for the 357SIG fans?

Just cleaned my 320 Compact from the first trip to the range; it's a .40 and the softest shooting of the three I have. May try a large grip frame to be sure the size is right; medium felt great in the LGS but curious if the large would soak up even more snap. No failures in 170 rounds.

Unfortunately, my P320 was not reliable either.
I've since sold it and will not be buying another one.

Any news on a .22LR exchange kit for the 320? I like my 320s and would love a .22 kit.

I bought a 320c FDE on Thursday...

I bought a Sig 320 Tac Ops carry last week. I put 500 flawless round through it. I like it so much I went back and bought the tradtional Carry Model. Put 200 rounds through it this morning and it was also deadly accurate. Very pleased so far

It turns out that shortly after my wasted experience with Cabella's I came upon a 320 sub-compact... and bought it. The 320 is replacing my well-loved CZ Rami that got destroyed when I trusted it to a bad gunsmith, and I find it to be a very nice little gun.

My first range trip went fine; I found the 320 to be accurate for it's size and fully reliable. At 10 yards I could consistently blow out the red X rings, and at 25 yards all of the rounds landed in the left upper torso area of a silhouette. I ran 150 rounds without experiencing any trigger finger fatigue or sting, which was an issue with the Rami's curved metal trigger.

The only hiccup is that the thumb of my firing hand tends to naturally rest in the same place as the slide release, so on the last shot I would sometimes engage the release. It made me think there was a problem with pistol not locking back due to a mechanical defect until I figured out that it was my fault.

If I could change one thing, it would be to have the old bar-dot sights Sig used to have a few decades ago. Unfortunately, those don't exist anymore.

Not Yet. I'd venture to say that it will be next year at the earliest.

Shot a couple yesterday. Nice handguns, probably not for me though.

I will never buy a P320. They are a butt-ugly pistol. They are plastic. The barrel radius is much too high. The grip is shaped such that it looks like you are holding a turd.
