See “ Liberia”. We gave them their own country. They didn’t go.
I have a Gen 1 with no patent pending on it #22xx I purchased September of 2019 did the later Gen 1 not have patent pending ?Patent pending should have ceased shortly into the Gen 2 production. I’d have to look at specifically when that was, but the only receivers manufactured to either of the two issued patents were all of Gen 1 and not many of the Gen 2.

Before the narrative gains traction, the red eye, mask or not, lizard or not, is a subconjunctival hematoma. Could happen to anyone. No BFD.
Great info. I’ve found this to be true at different locations/trainings/matches where distances are given as my ballistics are trued to the specific rangefinder I am using. So if my rangefinder says 1250 yards and the given range is 1238 yards, I know I have to use my rangefinders given range for the “true” dope. Even if my rangefinder is the faulty unit, my ballistic profile is trued to it.Very true. I have a Terrapin-X, and a buddy got an Sig Kilo 10K. We were ranging the same targets one day with them. At distances around 1000 yds, he was getting consistently about 4-5 yds more than me. At around a mile to 2000 yds it was 9-10 yds more than mine (that's enough to put you way off on your solution).
So, back at my own range with multiple targets out to 1626 yds, we had them professionally surveyed with modern surveying equipment that is accurate to about 0.5 inches. So now we have KNOWN distances that we can use to test range finders. It turned out that my farthest target (1626.27 yds in the survey), ranged consistently (and still does) at 1625 with the Terrapin-X, and 1635 with the Sig 10K. He sent the 10K back to Sig, they sent him a new one. It was better, but still off by 5 yds.
The Terrapin-X error shrinks to less than a yard at distances around 1200 or less. I assume that error grows to probably around -2 yards by the time you're out to 2100-ish, but can't confirm because we don't have anything surveyed that far. I'm just extrapolating the error at shorter distances to arrive at that figure - 0.5 yds short at 1219, 1 yard short at 1626, so presumably 2 yards short at 2100.
Here's the FUNNY part. He bought the 10K because he had an Sig Kilo 2400 that wouldn't range small targets much past 1000. Once we got the survey done, he tested it and accidentally found out that if he aimed the reticle a certain distance to the left (I think it was left), all of a sudden it started picking up all those targets he couldn't range before, AND, it was the most accurate of ALL the ones we tested - dead on (to the nearest whole-yard) with the surveyed distances at 740.xx, 1147.xx, 1219.xx and 1626.xx yards. He sold the 10K and knows how much "windage" to hold on the Kilo 2400 to account for the beam/reticle misalignment and get accurate returns from the target.
Stories I would care to see more than this.

So you mean it could be worth more on the secondary market?VGWTxxxx Previous ownership FFL marking variance
Will check when I get home.Is your Gen 2 marked Patent Pending?

There are two different problems.
First, OOB detonations causing the grip module to blow up. This is thought to be caused primarily by the disconnector that connects before the action is in battery, and a barrel with an unsupported chamber. The chamber problem is similar to early Glock, and I've read to a worse extent. Apparently the disconnector wears with use and makes this more likely.
The second problem is the uncommanded discharge. To my knowledge, the exact cause of this is not fully known. From what I have read, it's likely cause is a multitude of manufacturing issues. First, many of the parts are MIM and when viewed under a microscope, are rather rough. Along with this, allegedly the QA/QC is sub-par, many of the parts made in India, and tolerance stacking becomes an issue. Second, another theory I've read is that between the cast, not forged, FCU chassis, and the polymer grip module, pressure on the frame & slide can, in conjunction with tolerance stacking, cause them to twist/deform slightly and release the striker.
For awhile the UD was allegedly to be related to a specific Safariland holster that put too much pressure on the side of the slide, but the UDs have continued with other holsters.
Obligatory: I don't know anything about manufacturing, small arms design or gunsmithing. This is all what I've read from 3rd parties as a p320 owner.
I typed Marv and autocorrect helped me out“Marvin”.
What kind of pretentious ass is named Marc with a “c”?
Anyway, every kid who entered this world on Killdozer Day turns 21 in a month.
