US Air Force Grounds Sig Sauer M18 Pistol After Fatal Shooting

The US Air Force Global Strike Command has temporarily suspended the use of the Sig Sauer M18 pistol following a fatal shooting at F.E. Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming. A 21-year-old airman died in the incident. A full review of the weapon's safety is underway. The M18, and its civilian counterpart the P320, have faced previous allegations of unintentional discharges and lawsuits. While Sig Sauer denies safety concerns, this incident raises further questions about the pistol's reliability.
