I’m sorry, as I am sure this has been beat to death. The only reason that I ask is because of the fat trigger. I hope it is ok to post a link to the auction as it is closed?

If that's what it looks like when it shows up, then yes, it needs the recall if that's what you choose.

I know some people that never sent theirs in. Choice is yours ( I would send it in).

Who knows, as that photo may be an older stock image.

Phil and SIG put together a video showing the differences...

Evil exists. You can not negotiate with, bribe or placate evil. You're not going to be able to have it sit down with Dr. Phil for an anger management session either.

Thanks, that is the answer I expected. I will send it in, if it is as described. I am mostly interested in the FCU anyway.

Just call Sigs toll free # on their website. Then will sent you a free return shipping label and ship it back to your home, all at no cost. Give us an update when you get it back.

Will do, I have not received it yet and I don’t know the serial #. I should know a lot more Friday afternoon. I will update once it is in hand.
Thanks

If that’s the same gun/serial number it has not been upgraded. I zoomed in and entered the serial number on SIGs website and it confirmed the upgrade hasn’t been done.

It was a multiple gun listing, with one set of pictures representing the lot. When I found the listing there were 5 available and I bought the last one. So that may or may not be the serial # of the pistol that I receive, but I expect it to be nearly identical. Seller seems first rate. I bought it on Sunday and had a tracking # a few hours later.

Picked up the pistol this afternoon, it’s just as described, new old stock. It will need to go back for the recall. Trigger seems lighter than other 320’s I own? I will most likely pull the FCU for another project after the recall is done. Been sitting on a shelf since April 2017.

If you like the trigger Keep it as is, I have an old one with the fat trigger, many rounds, no problems, however I’m not smacking my loaded pistol with a dead blow hammer numerous times either, nor do I drop it loaded on it’s grip at just the right angle, but I’m crazy.

It does not 'need' to go back for the recall/update. That is a choice... Wink

I have a number of P320's around the house; most of them were pre-upgrade. I was concerned about a reported deterioration in the trigger quality if sent in for the "upgrade." I shot the fist pistol before it was sent in, then shot it when it came back. I couldn't tell a significant difference. The main difference was the clicking when dry firing, and the reset.

As I began sending pistols in for the "upgrade" I'd shoot them before and after, and also alongside others that weren't "upgraded," when the "upgrades" came back. At no point did I find anything to suggest that I'd want to not "upgrade" the pistol.

In the end, I couldn't find a valid reason to not "upgrade." The last one to go in for "upgrade" was a subcompact sitting next to me right now, in an x-compact grip module.

The one thing I have done with all the P320's is replace the triggers with flat triggers (except one my son has now; he prefers the curved trigger).

I liked the trigger prior to the "upgrade." Now, having had it done to each, and having replaced them with flat triggers, I like it more.

My goal when I bought this pistol was to see how close I could get to ending up with a free FCU. By selling the upper and lower separately I think I can get pretty close. This FCU will most likely end up in a WC module with a full size slide on it. I see no reason not to upgrade it before I start swapping parts.
Thanks
