NJ sues Sig Sauer over claims that pistols sold to NJ State Police were defective | New Hampshire
Seems silly to me.
Probably ammo related

Gotta wonder what happened. My 229 runs like a top. I've actually never had a malfunction with any Sig I've owned.
They were probably limp wristing.
I wonder what kind of ammo are they using? I have an FNX-9 and it will not cycle Winchester Ranger-T rounds reliably. Using Federal 124gr or 147gr HST no malfunctions at all.
Probably. The only malfunction I ever had with my P229 was when my daughter limp wristed it causing a FTF IIRC. Nobody else has ever had any problems.
I had "I think" something like that today. Wife and I went shooting. She wanted to try one of my ASR's that I was shooting. When I handed it to her it would only fire one round. I cleared it and one round. So I picked it up and fired 5 or so. As soon as she tried one round. She's a south paw so I was having trouble seeing what the hell was going on. I think she did not have it in her shoulder. It was so loud in there that she got frustrated and just refused to try any more. I suspect she was moving it away from her to try to line up the scope instead of moving her head. As soon as I took it to my lane it was of course fine. Will have to have her try it again when the place is not so busy and I can see for sure what she was doing. I handed her my Kel-Tec S2K and it fired fine for her but it ejects right in her face so she of course hates to shoot it.
Yes it took me years to get her to wear a t-shirt instead of blouse to the range. Few times with a hot case going down her top and she finally learned.Many women flinch or don't like ejections in their face, I have been told.
Hot brass can leave a mark.
Brutus out
My daughter held the gun with her elbows bent below at about 30* and her wrists bent forward even more. A recipe for instability. Interestingly, this worked ok for a Glock but not my SIG. Either way it is wrong.
