If you’re an online person — and you’re here, after all, so duh — you’re aware of the heightened level of controversy over the SIG SAUER P320 platform pistols, which include the US military’s M17 and M18 models. This latest acceleration in extraordinarily bad word of mouth was triggered by an incident in which an Air Force airman was killed, reportedly by his M18 duty gun. The circumstances surrounding the death are under investigation and the Air Force Global Strike Command has “paused” the use of M18s until more is known, but it’s grabbed a lot of people’s attention.
