If it's an agency owned gun, it'll be a one for one trade.  They will time it in conjuntion when you do your quals.  If it's a IOP gun that you carry on duty, it's the same, but will require a letter from a supervisor stating as such.  Once that is done, you'll designate where they will ship your new gun to a ffl.  Upon arrival  you send back your old one.  If not, you'll send it back like civillians.

I've seen it mentioned that shipping labels were supposed to start coming out today. I called and spoke to one of the fellows at Sig customer service to see if this was true. He told me they were still working on the final Logistics and, in an effort to make this as smooth as possible, wanted to make sure pistols are at the factory for a minimum amount of time. So at this point it looks like we still have to wait another week or two before the labels will start coming out.

WTF??? So glad I have a Glock, I took a chance on this P320 and it looks like I might have lost.

If true that's horrible customer service.

Oh it's true. I've posted about it before but here is the cliff notes:

october 2016 I had the firing pin of my MPX break at the range. On the same range trip a screw fell out of the cam-pln travel plate on my MCX. 
This caused the MCX to not cycle correctly. 

First of december a package arrives with a new mpx firing pin, bolt carrier and firing pin spring. Also included was the screw for the MPX   Cam pin travel plate. 
It took another month to get the correct screw for the MCX.

It never ceases to amaze me how impatient people are in this "Microwave society" we have evolved into. If we do not receive INSTANT gratification from a company then they are ostrasized immediately! No freaking mercy!
Never mind the fact the company has always stood behind the U.S. Military and Law Enforcement and has in the past had a stellar reputation for customer service and quality products. BUT NO MORE I say!
Why should we the consumer have to wait a few weeks for them to put together and implement a plan of action to facilitate an organized and efficient upgrade program for over 300,000 firearms? Why should we have to wait for such a service? Arn't we owed as Americans instant and immediate resolution to any wrong when a huge corporation preys on the public? I say we march on Exeter and burn Sig to the ground!
Who is with me?
Screw Sig!

You can't police with an empty holster.  

Do you carry a badge?  Or just anti police?  Do you even own a P320?

I can't tell you that because I am not running the numbers. But I am pretty sure it is more than the just over 30 days that have passed since this thing blew up.
Like I said before, I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. More than 300,000 is the number I heard, it may be more than that, and those pistols were delivered to the public over years so waiting a a couple months or maybe even longer for the upgrade does not bother me in the least.
I for one am still shooting my guns and will continue to do so with full confidence that they are as safe as any other firearm. The odds of me losing control of my firearm and it hitting the ground from greater than 5 feet at exactly a -30 degree angle is just to great for me to worry about. I am more worried about getting shot by an in-experienced new shooter or range cadre at my local range than I am about this non-sense. Yes I have seen some really dumb shit lately on the range.
Again just my opinion, take it or leave it.

I took that as meaning the opposite, Sig has stated they have halted production until the line has been changed for the new design, and I believe they stated they won't be producing new P320s until after the upgrades have been performed on existing pistols, so in order for cops to trade in their current duty weapons for those that have the new trigger design the production line would have to be up and running and producing new pistols which was said won't happen until the upgrades are finished.

I was going to buy two Glock 19's, but they are ridiculously expensive for all but the Gen3's. So I was thinking about maybe buying Sigs instead, but there is no info online about the problem being solved. How do I know if I buy a new p320 it will be fixed or not?
Link Posted: 9/19/2017 5:05:06 PM EDT
[#24]
If you buy a new P320 it won't be with the new trigger setup because they haven't started producing models with the new trigger components yet. The whole production line is shut down until they have all or most if the pistols already in customers hands fixed.

I have nothing but good times with my P320, still love the gun but you would think Sig would put out a monthly update.

Kind of surprised to find a big chain gun store with a bunch of 320s out for sale
View Quote
I’m Sure that’s why it’s a “voluntary upgrade” and not a “recall”. If it were a recall there would be dealers sitting on a metric shit ton of products they can’t sell and have to deal with for the recall. 

A upgrade allows them to keep them on the market and sell them. Sig likely didn’t want to piss off dealers a second time. I’ve heard from one dealer late in the summer that still didn’t have parts from the MCX recall.

My lgs got their notification from sig to send in their stock for the upgrade last week on Wednesday.  They sent in 40 to 50 guns but kept 4 for sell in the case.

Unfortunately for me, I was looking to trade for 45 compact but I was too late.

I emailed the place where I saw 320s for sale and their corporate got back to me and said they were just going to sell them and explain the "voluntary upgrade." I don't think they realized the seriousness of the defect.

@aimless That brings up and interesting question and you are the perfect one to ask:

lets say someone buys a 320 from said gun store and the $8.25/hr salesperson failed to mention the “upgrade”
the next day the customer is showing off his new “army issued p320” to his buddies and drops it. It goes off and hits one of them in the balls, effectively castrating the poor, unlucky bastard. 

If mr ballless sues his buddy who dropped it, could the customer in turn sue the gun store who originally sold it to him and didn’t mention the defect?

edit usually everyone in the "stream of commerce" is liable for product liability, although I guess your example would also be more traditional negligence

Edit2 lawyer would be targeting Sig, deeper pockets ( guy who dropped it maybe has 250k negligence on his homeowners), although the guy who bought it would also be sued

I juat asked a guy at the fun store I bought my 320 at about this. They have a good and close relationship with their Sig rep. He said that since Sig is sticking to the voluntary part of the recall they still have all their 320s on the shelves. They have not sent their inventory back for rework.



I was still remotely considering getting a second 320, with the red dot. I'm not sure about that anymore. Looks like a M&P 2.0 longslide for me.

I have 3 sigs. The p320, MCX and MPX

I’m about to sell the MPX, I’ll likely keep the 320 and the MCX is form 1’ed. 

I dont forsee buying another sig anytime soon. 
Its one thing to have a problem with a product, I get that. But man up and own it. How problems are handled is as important as features in my buying decisions. 

Everytime ive called sig, they’ve been great on the phone. But it’s always taken at least a month to get parts. 
That bothers me with guns that rely on propitiatory parts.

Bulk of the email:

Thank you for successfully registering your P320 for SIG SAUER’s no-cost Voluntary Upgrade Program. It is our goal to keep you informed throughout this process.

We will begin sending information and labels required for returning your P320 throughout October and November. Shipping labels will go out in stages based on when each P320 was registered so you may not see yours immediately.

We would also like to take this opportunity to verify your return shipment information.

Keep in mind that we must have a physical residential address to return your firearm to you (no business or PO Box addresses will be accepted), and an adult over 21 years of age will need to be home to sign for the returned pistol.

The address that we have on file for you is...
