So much for Safe Action. There is a reason 1911s and the Springfield

There are steel-toe shoes. Why don't they make steel-muzzle holsters
(similar idea to steel-toe shoes) so when the gun misfires in the
holster the bullet won't be able to exit?

Now that would be interesting. Why don't you patent the idea?

I am reminded of a grade school friend that became a town cop and I
heard he shot himself in the foot and it was probably a revolver.

During the fast draw craze in the '50s that was a frequent injury. They
finally figured out wax bullets were a good idea.

A friend and his wife were into that. His wife accidently shot him one
day. If she'd been a better shot he might be dead.

Lots of words, and I've read a lot of comments,
but nobody has given a reason or cause for the
discharge.
I carried a Sig for around 12 years, and I do not
understand these incidents.

A police officer didn�t touch the trigger of his holstered pistol when a
bullet fired, striking his partner�s leg at a crime scene investigation in
Wisconsin, a federal lawsuit says.

The Milwaukee Police Department officer never intended for the weapon � a
P320 pistol from gun-maker Sig Sauer � to go off when it struck fellow
officer Charles Laskey-Castle�s left thigh on Sept. 10, according to the
lawsuit.

The immediate blood loss, nerve and tissue damage from the gunshot has
caused Laskey-Castle to have issues walking, running, sitting and standing
as he once did, as well as severe emotional trauma, the complaint says.

The Sig Sauer pistol is no longer used by the Milwaukee Police Department,
which recently transitioned to using a Glock instead, a spokesperson told
McClatchy News in a statement on March 30. They confirmed that at the
scene of a hit-and-run, an officer�s firearm �inadvertently discharged� in
their holster, hitting a nearby officer on Sept. 10.

Dozens of other gun users, including police officers, federal agents, Army
veterans and trained civilians, were similarly and unexpectedly shot by
the P320 pistol deemed �dangerously defective� in the lawsuit.

Laskey-Castle is one of 20 people who filed the lawsuit against Sig Sauer,
Inc. in New Hampshire federal court on March 27.

Twelve plaintiffs and victims of the Sig Sauer P320 pistol.
Twelve plaintiffs and victims of the Sig Sauer P320 pistol.
The lawsuit comes after twenty separate individuals similarly sued Sig
Sauer over the P320 pistol in November, McClatchy News previously
reported.

Both cases are represented by the Saltz Mongeluzzi & Bendesky P.C. law
firm and Benjamin T. King of Douglas, Leonard & Garvey, P.C. law firm,
according to a news release, which says they�ve learned of over more than
125 separate occasions when the P320 pistol unintentionally
discharged/ing.

�After every lawsuit that we have filed, more and more users have
contacted us regarding their injuries from unintended discharges of their
P320s,� attorney Robert J. Mongeluzzi said in a statement. �Every
complaint adds to the avalanche of evidence regarding the danger of this
product.�

Sig Sauer spokeswoman Samantha Piatt told McClatchy News in a statement on
March 30 that the pistol �is designed to fire when the trigger is pulled�
and �includes internal safeties that prevent the firearm from discharging
without a trigger pull.�

She denied the accusations made in the complaint.

�Most dangerous pistol sold in the United States market�
The 20 plaintiffs whose �lives were upended� by the P320 pistol are from
several states including Florida, Michigan, New Jersey, Texas, Maryland,
Nevada and more, according to the complaint.

The complaint, which demands a trial by jury, describes the weapon as �the
most dangerous pistol� sold in the U.S.

Meanwhile, the company says �careless and improper handling� of any gun
can cause the weapon to unintentionally fire and that the P320 pistol
meets U.S. safety standards online.

Pistol goes off in its holster
Plaintiff Marcos Hernandez was issued a P320 pistol as a Virginia state
trooper, according to the complaint.

On Jan. 24, as Hernandez entered a state police office building, his
holstered pistol suddenly went off and a bullet hit his right thigh, the
complaint says.

Due to his injuries, �he will likely never be able to return to his pre-
incident form as a result of diminished physical capacity,� the complaint
says.

Plaintiff Erin Cooper, a D.C. Metro Transit Police Department officer, was
issued a P320 pistol before it unexpectedly fired in her holster and hit
her right leg on May 17, 2021, the complaint says.

The weapon went off as she put on her duty belt, causing a bullet to burn
her right thigh, according to the complaint. The incident led to tinnitus
� a ringing sensation heard in one or both ears � and emotional trauma,
the complaint says.

Plaintiff Johnny Davis, who has 26 years of law enforcement experience,
was issued a P320 from Puerto Rico State Police, according to the
complaint.

On Nov. 16, when Davis fixed his waistband, his pistol fired in its
holster and a bullet hit his testicle and left thigh, the complaint says.

Similar to the other plaintiffs, he says his injuries are likely to be
long-lasting.

�We are calling on Sig Sauer to do what it should have done long ago -
recall the P320 weapon and redesign the gun with the types of safeties
used by its competitors,� attorney Robert Zimmerman, who�s also
representing the plaintiffs, said in a statement.

The lawsuit seeks to recover damages for the plaintiffs.
