The manual is also written towards the sporting shooter at the range. In which case their statement of not loading the firearm until ready to shoot is completely appropriate.

Carry is always inherently more dangerous. Always keep a round in the chamber and apply whatever safety and safe carry practices you are able per the type of firearm that you carry.

A wonderful firearm -- but indeed "cocked and unlocked" with its pretensioned striker. That trigger gets manipulated and it goes boom. All the smack talk about them going off by themselves is BS -- Have kept my three in a safe unloaded and cocked -- no sears tripped by themselves in months. Funny how all the "uncommanded discharges" happened while being carried on a person. Lawsuit judgments in gun-unfriendly states don't prove anything except hostility against manufacturers. I cut one for a safety (thank you, Sig Mechanics) and that blocks the trigger/trigger bar. Easy on/off for a bit more safety if carrying with one in the pipe. An easy mod for those so inclined.

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!! I can't wait to see all the cope from the P320 users who have their ego invested into a P250 afterthought.

I utilize all my Serpa holster inventory to carry my ego invested p250.(s)
No AD/ND so far so I think you're onto something.

I’ve said this before and I’m saying it again, IMO because we’re all mostly men here talking (a few women here and about) if you don’t trust it, sell it.

If you’re not comfortable, carrying it then by all means sale it and move on or hears your idea ”let me post about the P320 having issues and Sig needs to come clean…blah blah enough already. Stop all the B S about problems with the P320 that you knew about before you purchased it.

If it’s not reliable to you and you’re afraid to carry the P320 move on brother, and stop going on forums crying about it.

It seems SIG has changed the verbiage recently...

I have not had time to check the voracity of this, but it seems plausible.

Sig really needs to fix this issue (they say that does not exist), I feel my P320X5 having the value of a paperweight soon.

I've been seeing a lot of them in the used gun cases at Scheels and places like that. I think the one I was in last week had 8-9 320s in various forms....X5, full size, compact, etc

And all you new guys with less than 200 post ( you know who you are) and Glock fanboys (I’ve got 3 Glocks as well) and just want to bash Sig for the record.

All Trolls go away your stinking up the room with all your P320 hate (I’ve got 4 P320‘s and there all good little soldiers) btw.

Next the Sig lawyers will have a bullet warning in the manual and to load only with snap caps for CCW and home defense.

Sig has the same safety information in manuals for other firearms, as well. It is not specific to the P320.

ETA: It is also stated in similar wording in the P365 manual at least as early as 2021.

1. i don't keep count of how many posts I have
2. I am not a sig hater - my safe is full of their hammer fired guns including a P220 and P225 so old that they are still marked "MADE IN W. GERMANY" and oddballs like a P250 in 45
3. I had an original P320 that I sent back for the original "recall" - and i thought it was "fine"
4. I never purchased or planned to use a P320 as a carry gun, but I would have liked to have used my P320X5 for some IDPA like shooting
5. NOW THIS STUFF IS MY OPINION - at one time i believed that all the P320 stuff was total BS - but I have watched enough videos and read enough reports that now I think there is an issue, perhaps it is just a QC issue, but it may be a design issue and I think Sig knows it is an issue and I think Sig should fix it

I have long been an advocate for carrying condition two. Unless firearm has grip and manual safety, then ok for one in pipe.
The Israeli defense force mandates condition two, and they can draw and rack, fire, faster than most shooters can draw and fire
