AN ANALYSIS OF EVERY P320 TRIGGER...EVER

In this video I use professional trigger testing equipment on every P320 trigger ever made including all factory, aftermarket and discontinued models. Each evaluation shows a complete trigger profile, along with an analysis of the individual triggers' behaviour, followed by a chart with a breakdown of that triggers results for your reference. Lastly, I provide subscribers with an explanation of how to read the Trigger Scan results and provide 3D visuals of the mechanics within the FCU during those trigger stages as they are happening.

    I’m so glad to hear it. I really do strive to keep it simple but also balance that with bombarding you with data and information. It’s hard sometimes but seems to be working so far! As for the snap cap, each test was done with 10 snap cap cartridges (in order to max out spring tension), therefore, what you are seeing is the natural movement of the sear/striker interacting like in all striker fired pistols.

    @@SIGMECHANICS I did a demonstration for some of my club members at the range that said P 320s are prone to discharging with out pulling the trigger. I took my three P 320s in, one factory original, one slightly modified and one heavily modified. With the lower part of the slide cover cut off giving me access to the sear. I then chambered a primed case, no power or projectile. I then pushed down on the sear and released the striker. The primer didn't go off, there wasn't even a mark on the primer. I did this to all three guns proving the striker block did it job in each case and that the Sig Sauer P320 is safe. I'm going to make a video of it to quiet the less informed.

    Crazy to see the different break-angles. Have heard it's different on different P320 triggers, but never expected some of them to be so far outside the range of others. Some break around 90 and some break far beyond that (give or take)... and some even appear to start at about 90 (or even beyond that). Just never noticed that before not having really ever seen them being compared. Have probably see videos with all of them, but just never together (or in this way).

    One problem I have discovered with the 320 trigger weight is that there is no consistency in trigger pull weight. I have examined over a dozen 320’s (pre and post upgrade) I found that there was a variation from 4.4 to 8.5 pounds. Also, owners of 320’s need to be careful choosing kydex holsters since different trigger designs can cause a conflict with the groove of the trigger used in the mold to make the holster. If a straight trigger is put into a curved trigger molded holster, it can cause trigger movement disengaging the internal safety lock tab as if only needs about 1.35 mm of travel for it to disengage. I would like to see you take 10 stock identical 320’s and use this machine to see what consistency you get.

I was wondering if there was any chance you might know or could test to find out how much a trigger can weigh and still be drop safe? In other words, are you able to find out at what weight triggers fail drop test?

    I think if you sometimes carry, and not exclusively use it for fun, you should stick to stock or non adjustable triggers. Curved and skeletonized factory are my favourites. If you want to tune, I found Keres (Centurion) to be really great, but if you want a bit of “best of both” I’d go with a Grayguns trigger, which can be tuned for over travel but will not do anything for take up. (Which is good for carry). Of course there’s no one “right” answer as it’s ultimately personal preference.

    The only thing I could think of would be that almost all the tests that you see are done by human hands, using a handheld device, whereas in this video, everything was done mechanically with a computer with no input from a human. Meaning, the pulls are extremely consistent and there is no jerking motion. The direction of travel is the same throughout the entire trigger pull. All that to say, there’s a likelihood that the trigger scan will output substantially more accurate results and the difference you are seeing is actually the real outputs. I of course did not show this but I actually ran 3 tests for each trigger to assure the pulls were consistent all the way through. So what you see is truly what you are getting.

Yet your test seems to show the opposite effect. 4.8lbs for the regular flat triggers vs 6.1lbs for the skeleton version (the graph shows 5lbs but the results are reported at over 6lbs).
