WESTPORT, Conn., Jan. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --  After a five-day trial in the case of Guay v. Sig Sauer, Inc., the chief federal judge for the District of New Hampshire found that Kyle Guay did not pull the trigger of his Sig Sauer P320 when it discharged a round into his thigh in January 2020.  After hearing expert testimony, cauterization testimony from responding officers, and Mr. Guay, the court found that his P320 discharged while fully inside its holster.  The gunshot wound caused severe damage to Guay's leg.  The court wrote:

Key Points: 
  • WESTPORT, Conn., Jan. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --  After a five-day trial in the case of Guay v. Sig Sauer, Inc., the chief federal judge for the District of New Hampshire found that Kyle Guay did not pull the trigger of his Sig Sauer P320 when it discharged a round into his thigh in January 2020.
  • Moreover, as expert testimony revealed, the P320 had a 6.7 pound trigger, meaning that to fire, the user had to exert 6.7 pounds of pressure.
  • The court also found Sig's claim that it is impossible for the P320 to fire without a trigger pull unpersuasive:
    To the extent that Watkins and Toner testified that it is impossible for a P320 (or for Guay's P320) to have fired without a trigger pull, the court finds their opinions unpersuasive.
  • As discussed, the court found credible Guay's testimony that he did not pull the trigger, and the video of the Roscommon incident was persuasive in showing that a P320 can fire without a trigger pull.
