No reason to call us all names. :lolu::lolu::lolu: (Assess)I highly doubt you will charged for the repairs. Don't expect an invoice. Were you running different types of ammo or a single brand. What kind of ammo were you using. This will help the community asses.
I shot multiple brands (Remington, Blazer Brass, etc...) and multiple grains (mostly 115, but some 124). All brass, no reloads.I highly doubt you will charged for the repairs.

After 1200 rounds it has been sent to Sig for service.
sting was what causes the casing to be stuck in the barrel.
recall my CCW instructor saying a gun used for defense should be thought of like a parachute, you need to be able to trust it.
Is that after tax and fees? That is cheap, don't forget to take advantage of S&W's $75 rebate right now. I bought my Shield two months too soon.Meanwhile my LGS had a sale on M&P Shield, so I picked one up for $319. Having been in manufacturing for over 30 yrs it was clear the Sig is built much better than the Shield, the finish and quality of build between the 2 was clear. I was worried that if I am limp wristing with the P320c, then a smaller gun will be even worse. Nope, not a single jam in 350 rounds through the Shield.
Nice, I haven't pulled the trigger for another 8 rounder just yet. I did just pick up a Pearce grip to replace the flush mag.How do I find out more about the Shield rebate?
That price was retail, new in box and the LGS through in an extra 8 round mag! I asked why such a great deal and they said every couple months they do a volume buy on a couple models from a single manufacturer. They had a raffle, that included shooting a couple magazines through some higher end models. I wish they had a deal on the performance center model, loved the sights and the trigger.
i had issues with my first 320c. i had FTE issues and i sent it back to SIG and they fixed the issue for free. it was a weak extractor spring. but after a couple 100 rounds or so, I started to get FTF and FTE, so I sold it. I bought a new full size 320 and after 500 round I have no issues with it, and then i bought an xchange compact kit and so far no issues other than 1 light primer strike. i think that the compacts are having some growing pains, but the full size appears to be doing well.After 1200 rounds it has been sent to Sig for service.
I was having jamming problems from the start, many suggested limp wristing was the cause. I added Talon grips and spent time with trainer but still jamming. By jamming, I mean the spent casing was stuck in the barrel. Sometimes I needed something pry the casing out. Sig customer service said it's normal and a 1-2% failure is well within normal range. I find the % to be higher than I would expect. It was suggested to put more rounds (1000+) through it. I was also told that limp wristing was what causes the casing to be stuck in the barrel.
It's very frustrating shooting a gun that jams that often.

I spent time shooting them side by side, if the Sig jammed, I ran the rest of that box of ammo through the Shield with no problem.
Finally the Sig trigger wouldn't reset. I had multiple RSO's look at it and they said it's broken. The LGS checked it out and said the same thing and shipped it to Sig. They said Sig will likely charge me for the repair and shipping. Great more $$.
Did the jamming cause the trigger problem?
Yes, I did clean and lube the gun prior to shooting the first time and after every time I shot it. I also was told that "Sig's like to run wet", so I brought lube to the range - the rails and outside of the barrel.

Did I get a lemon?
When it's returned from Sig, I don't know if I trust it for home defense. I recall my CCW instructor saying a gun used for defense should be thought of like a parachute, you need to be able to trust it.
250 rounds through mine and no issues.. Only issue I have is with the Romeo1 optic. No matter how much I turn the two adjustment screws for up/down or windage, the red dot stays in the exact same spot. Will not more.Sorry to hear you are having issues, I have put +1000 through my compact and have not had a single issue so far. Hopefully SIG CS will make it right!
