Connecticut Attorney issues retraction demand to Sig Sauer, Inc.
WESTPORT, Conn., March 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Bagnell firm is today demanding that Sig Sauer, Inc. issue a public retraction of defamatory comments regarding victims of the P320 pistol.
In a news release dated March 7, 2025, published on its website and social media pages, Sig maligns those victims – – many of whom are federal and state law enforcement agents, as “negligent,” “anti-gun,” “seeking to profit and avoid personal responsibility,” being part of an “anti gun mob” and engaging in “lawfare.”
Disturbingly, Sig further imputes a dishonest purpose to all victims and their legal counsel who have the courage to bring claims in state or federal court seeking redress for injuries as severe as death.
“At this point a federal judge, a federal jury, and a state jury have all found that a P320 can malfunction. Numerous claims have been settled over the last eight years. Sig’s claim that it is “impossible” for the P320 to fire without a trigger pull was expressly rejected as unpersuasive by a U.S. District court in 2022.
“It is bad enough that Sig has refused to issue an unambiguous safety warning about this gun or recall it given its history. But it’s worse for it to add insult to injury by issuing an ill advised statement that publicly defames P320 victims, some of who are still trying to recover from life altering injuries and trauma caused by Sig’s product.
“It is simply disgraceful for Sig to suggest that the victims of the P320 are “anti gun” or against the Second Amendment when all are law enforcement officers or civilians licensed to carry firearms.”
Bagnell is demanding that Sig retract and apologize for the defamatory statements within 30 days.
