26 LAW ENFORCEMENT TECHNOLOGY AUGUST 2017 www.officer.com F IR E A R M S TA C T I C S We found that one must avoid drift- ing the pin connected to the trigger link- age, once the chassis is removed. I didn't do it, but it looks like punching it out all the way means putting the whole assem- bly back together. Slide assemblies are swapped by simply field stripping the gun, then swapping the assembly. Swapping cali- bers is as easy as field stripping, then assembling using parts appropriate for the caliber. Caliber change kits, called X-Change Kits, include barrel/slide assembly, grip module and magazine. All P320 slide assemblies come with either contrast or SIGLITE tritium night sights, including the RX (reflex sight) models. The SIGLITE sights are quick to acquire in low light and great for duty use. How do they fire? Considering the whole fire control assembly for this gun is smaller than a magazine that feeds it, the trigger pull is surprisingly smooth. The gun doesn't have any external safeties, but it has a disconnect and striker safety. The former prevents firing out of battery, the latter prevents firing unless the trigger is pulled. One thing that we did find was that the P320 will "click" when the trigger is pulled as if the sear has been reset with- out manipulating the slide. It's unique to this kind of action, but our team was wondering if it had dry fire training potential or if it would harm the action in the long run. We shot the P320 in 9mm and the Sig Sauer P320 Air Pistol side by side. Circle 24 on Reader Ser vice Card It seems the P320 was designed for modulartiy. Its fire control assembly can be removed for even more customization.
