While the incident on a base in Wyoming remains under investigation, all service members in the Air Force’s Global Strike Command unit will pause use of the New Hampshire-made M18 pistol.
I was looking for my forever pistol around the time that the army adopted the P320. I liked that it was modular and I could fit my hand around it which had been a problem because I’m a tall person with disproportionately large hands that would swamp most EDC guns and I hated the 1911. The P320 was going to solve all my problems. The army getting it combined with modular design was going to mean all kinds of options in the future.
But then the reports started coming in. People were doing drop tests on YouTube. This thing was a disaster. They did a recall. Great. That’s going to fix the glitch. But it didn’t. I knew it wouldn’t. Even if it did any time I handled one I was going to think about if it was a fixed one or not.
My dreams were shattered. I did end up going with Sig but I picked the P365. Not perfect. But really really good. Number of mods I’ve done? None.
I was too wary of the 320 to ever trust it exactly like you’ve mentioned. Interesting that I went with the 365 as well and am satisfied with it. I added the larger mags mostly so it fit my hand better, but that’s it.
