Has anyone sent one in for the upgrade yet ???? I sent them my info and so far nothing .

I heard you are next.

Well, my P320 Compact is currently my EDC. So while she's off getting her boob implan...enhancements, I face one heck of a dilemma.

Go back to toting my beloved 1989 P226 or buy a SP2022? Decisions, decisions, decisions....

It's going to take SIG awhile to manufacture whatever parts are required and then test them...on every surface, at every conceivable angle and from every drop height. Another R&D mistake would be a bigger nightmare.

I think someone mentioned in this thread or the other thread that customer service told him it might be in October before owners will start receiving notices. That might be a little optimistic though.

Now you've got his hopes up.

This is a good overall view of what SIG is doing...without the drama we saw in this thread.

while I think being drop safe is a great thing, I can't remember a time when I dropped any pistol, loaded or not. Pistols are impossible to make idiot proof.

I have 3 to send in and I eventually will. I'm not exactly worried.

I wholly agree!!! I will wait to send mine in until consensus tells me it is safe to get into the water.

I don't know, apparently a lot of people are very worried. I'd hate to think any of them have newborn babies. They're not drop safe, y'know!

Huh, I RO lots of matches and a non drop safe pistol gives me heartburn. What the heck does that have to with babies. Sarcasm ok, but your comment crosses the line.

Ever RO when a dreaded 70 series 1911 is on the line?

So the matches you RO they insert the gun into some Nerf ball?
Do the competitors have modern factory guns that most likely passed the same 'standard' tests as the 320? Do they have older guns, or guns that have been modified, such that how drop safe they are is unknown?
Are the matches held at places that are identical to the drop test room, or are there varying surfaces and items that would increase the chances of a firearm firing if dropped?

The one thing that stands out most to me from the OO test is just how many people went Chicken Little/ Henny Penny over the test.

You do realize most modern 1911s, series 70 even, are largely drop safe, right? A firing pin block, as SIG is finding out, is not always the be all and end all of drop safety. Furthermore, before the advent of titanium firing pins combined with heavy springs, the main way the older 1911s went off when dropped was muzzle down. One might blow off a toe, at worst.

The whole mess with the P320 is when it goes off, the muzzle is facing upwards, at a slight angle. This leaves the entire body open to injury, rather than just a toe.

Agency/LE options are now available on the SIG website for the P320 voluntary upgrade program.

My P320 is an LE pistol and the website link just indicates that the serial number is undefined and will not permit me to advance further. If I try the serial number under Non LE link, it indicates that the serial number is an LE pistol and advises that I need to enter it as an LE pistol. No worky worky.

Call customer service they will take care of it, they did for me.

Just did. The guy was pretty cool. I asked if they could check to make sure it has the most current extractor and install the newer ambidextrous controls while it was there, at my cost, but was advised that I would have to ship it back after receiving it from them to have that done. I'm not paying to ship it back after receiving it. He did indicate that I should receive the shipping label in about a month or so.

I had to use a different web browser and then it worked.

Buy a CZ PCR or P01 Omega. Problem solved.

I still have my full size 320 in 9mm out and my L/E W-320 Com is in its holster . The full size is the one I sent my info in on . The only gun I ever had do a flip out of my hand was a Colt Com 45 it landed pointed right at me . That was 35 years ago I think .
