Fellow members,
For those that have not been following social media and news reports, the Sig Sauer P320 has come under a lot of scrutiny lately due to what appears to be un-commanded discharges. Currently there is no clear answer as to why this is happening. The majority of issues we have seen are associated with the gun being in a holster. Many of us own Sig 320 platforms and have never had an issue. The safety of the platform however does concern us. As a result we have done the following:
- Modified the range rules to include a TEMPORARY section which includes a BAN on having a Sig P320, LOADED in a holster on ASC property. You may still shoot the gun without a using a holster. Keep in mind that we still don’t allow any loaded gun to be set down on a bench unless it is an emergency.
- We have added an Sig Sauer P320 Information web page to capture information about the platform. Information about the ban is included here as well as the range rules.
Please understand this ban we hope is temporary until a clear reason and solution (if applicable) is made. We recognize that many people own this firearm and it is an inconvenience We also recognize that many popular platforms have gone through similar issues only to be successfully resolved. We are optimistic that this can happen soon. Until that time we want to limit the exposure of risk to help ensure our members and their guests remain safe.
Thank you.
