This is interesting. The language quoted by Muss Muggins above is new language. Apparently, it has recently been edited. The language used to read precisely as follows: "If dropped, the pistol may fire. Keep the chamber empty unless actually firing." Looks like Sig corporate is doing some damage control.

The new manual is identified on its last page as P/N 8501909-01 REV00. The old manual with the original quote is identified as P/N 8501300-01 REV00.
