Canadian soldier sues Ottawa and U.S. gun maker over accidental shooting
A veteran military police officer is suing Ottawa and SIG Sauer after a holstered C-22 allegedly discharged without a trigger pull, ending his career. The case undercuts defence claims of a clean rollout and reopens scrutiny of a pistol platform tied to hundreds of disputed U.S. incidents and prior warnings.

The guy turned it in to #DHS

Sad that it probably the guy who found and took Alex's gun, who said "gun" when removing it (in holster?) from Alex which caused (at that second) another guy to pull out his (probably same type of gun) and then shoot Alex in the chest.

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.
