I keep going back and forth between picking up this and a B&T APC9K or HK SP5K.

Very torn between old school cool and new hotness, but they’re way too expensive to just buy all of them.
Dude, choose the SP5K purely for the vibes, as the kids say. The AAFES exchanges have good deals on SP5s and SP5Ks from time to time and the no tax is a huge benefit.

Whenever I hear that someone ND’d while holstering, my inclination is not to blame the gun.

I don’t have a P320, but if I did, I’d continue to carry it and train with it without thinking twice.
I agree, but I think it's easier to do with our Sig P320s that have the flat trigger. The key is to go slow and stop if you feel an obstruction. None of our ADs have been in a tactical situation, and IF they were caused the way I think they were, they could have easily been avoided.

Good idea on AAFES. I’ve had a line on a SP5K for $2700 shipped from a no tax state.

Unfortunately, that price is still a little too rich for my taste, and that’s probably because it’s Cerakoted a hideous shade of poo (FDE). I like FDE just fine on a lot of guns, but a SP5 is only meant to be the way that John McClane and the SAS had it in my book. Plus the add ons to make it more functional (eg optics rail) are also disgustingly expensive.

Man I still will holster my M17/18 for range/match shooting where I can better control where the muzzle goes when holstered, but I’m still leery of making it a chambered CCW. I was mostly sold on it being a trigger pull problem, up until the FOIA’d reports that came out late last year about the military issue models also having a few reports of uncommanded discharges also has made me less than thrilled.
I’m still not in the camp of “it’s broken”, but I don’t love the uncertainty and the lack of transparency on what independent testing is done on these guns (if any) when an incident is reported.
