A former Florida sheriff’s deputy was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter in connection with the accidental shooting death of his girlfriend, authorities said.

Leslie Boileau called 911 on Thursday night to report that he had “accidentally shot his girlfriend” at their home in Ocala. The girlfriend was found with a handgun on her lap “and a rifle was also present at the scene,” the Ocala Police Department said in a statement on Facebook.

    Sig Sauer has a long-standing known issue of the gun firing without even pulling the trigger; regardless of whether the safety is on or not.

      The 320 had a recall earlier in its life for drop safety but they did a redesign of the interior since then. I think today it’s more of a poor excuse for negligence.
