I wounder what #QueerArmorer is doing rn...

I guess they never stopped dropping #based takes.

Seriously, there's a reason why #CIP member nations have #Proofhousing mandatory and why #SIG doesn't build that shit in #Germany.

  • Because design-based accidental discharges of the Type 94 #Nambu "Style" but worse would get them sued for neglect and damages.

Title: Arrest made in fatal shooting of airman that led Air Force command to stop using M18 pistols

"The Air Force has charged an airman with making false statements, obstructing justice and involuntary manslaughter in the July 20 shooting death of a security forces airman at F.E. Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming ..."

"Air Force Global Strike Command, which oversees the service’s nuclear capabilities including the intercontinental ballistic missiles at F.E. Warren, ordered a pause in the use of the M18 pistol after Lovan’s death. The concern was the shooting might have been the result of a so-called “uncommanded discharge,” which occurs when a gun fires without the trigger being pulled."

So, at least it was not a murder. But a guy shot another and then lied and blamed P320. And a whole bunch of weak-minded fools started to ban P320 because of this.
