#Lawsuit

We are back on the legal beat again, this time with another bout of Sig Sauer P320 litigation. A jury awarded $11 million to a man who claims his P320 fired while it was holstered. But there is more to the story than that, so let’s break down the details

Only a few weeks back, in early August of 2024, we told you about Maine’s new 72-hour waiting period for gun purchases. Now we’re seeing our first lawsuit against the new law—just as the state’s governor suggested we might see when she approved the law.

One of the most significant lawsuits in the firearms world has been mostly dismantled in the U.S. Federal District Court. US district judge Dennis Saylor has dismissed the Mexican government’s lawsuit against six American gunmakers, months after it was filed in Massachusetts. However, the $10B lawsuit is not completely gone—there’s still some cleanup to sort out with other parties named in the suit.

On Monday, July 22, lawyers for the city of Chicago filed paperwork to end their high-profile lawsuit against Glock. Does this mean a big legal win for the Austrian gunmaker, and for American shooters? No. Instead of giving up in their aggressive legal battle, Chicago’s leaders are doubling down, and expanding their lawsuit.
