It's just a desk pop, calm down.

Hey, Terry, I did it! I did my first desk pop!

It could be operator negligence, but it would not surprise me if a Chinese handgun had problems with "uncommanded discharges." Now SIG doesn't have to be alone!

Tbh my experience with chinese goods has been that the "garbage quality stuff that breaks easily" is usually the very cheap stuff made to compete on price and nothing else. In which case, an equivalent thing from anywhere would be the same way. Anything I've bought from a Chinese manufacturer at a typical price for it's product type and from a company with a proper brand that isn't a random string of letters has been decent enough quality. Granted that's been electronics and not guns, but still, it's not like the knowledge of how to make stuff doesn't exist there somehow.

You missed the joke...

It is clearly a equipment issue and can't have anything to do with the department or the officer

[-] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 2 points 2 weeks ago

If it was a joke, I definitely missed it then, I didn't even have the slightest suspicion that it might be one.
