Don’t have any more details than this press release yet. Press conference scheduled for 11:00 AM today (Thu 10/16/25):
“They” never stop, do “they?”
I’m not 100% certain, but perhaps Platkin is pulling out all the stops to amass as much anti-gun cred as he can in the few months he has remaining as NJAG.
No matter who wins the NJ governor’s election he’ll be out of the position.

Defective weapon ?
Sig?
Winner!
TRENTON – Attorney General Matthew J. Platkin today announced a lawsuit against Sig Sauer, Inc. for multiple violations of the State’s Firearms Industry Public Safety Law and the Consumer Fraud Act (CFA). The lawsuit seeks to halt the sale of the P320 handgun, which has killed at least one New Jersey local law enforcement officer and wounded other law enforcement officers and civilians around the State due to its well-documented propensity to fire unintentionally. …

What is the next step in a career for a unemployed AG? I mean im guessing he will be jobless after the election. Trying to make a name for himself?
Get on the Bloomberg gravy train, oops, I mean, join the board of Everytown For Gun Safety / Mom’s Demand Action
AG for the USA after the next Dem president wins?
Imagine these people spent half as much time trying to actually fix this State instead of wasting taxpayer dollars and infringing on peoples rights.

Well, keep in mind, that starts at the top. Remember Murphy saying during Covid, when asked about mandating shutdowns? He said, “I wasn’t thinking about the Bill of Rights at that time”.
“That’s above my paygrade”

If it was ANY other state OAG, I might believe that the lawsuit was in good faith and was an attempt to fix a perceived safety issue.
That said, Platkin’s office has been known to sue out of state FFL’s, and Glock. He’s trying to make dealing guns in NJ more trouble than it’s worth so manufacturers and businesses voluntarily leave the state.
SIG SAUER Responds to New Jersey Attorney General’s Latest Attack on Firearms Industry
NEWINGTON, N.H., (October 17, 2025) – New Jersey Attorney General Platkin (D) filed a complaint against SIG SAUER, making numerous false and unsubstantiated claims about the P320. This false information requires immediate clarification and remedy.
AG Platkin’s assertion that the Modular Handgun System (MHS) program would not accept SIG SAUER’s submission because testing by the U.S. Army deemed it “unsafe” without a manual safety is outright false. The MHS program solicitation required all firearm manufacturers’ bids include pistols with manual safeties. The Government assured all bidders it would discontinue testing and eliminate a competitor from further consideration if the testing process uncovered any safety issue. SIG SAUER was not eliminated from the competition, but in fact was awarded the contract for the military’s official sidearm.
The Attorney General’s office further stated that an FBI Ballistics Research Facility report claimed one of the safety mechanisms of the P320 can be disabled without any pressure on the trigger. This is also false. SIG SAUER engineers worked directly with the FBI and the Michigan State Police, who commissioned the report, to conduct a comprehensive battery of follow-on tests. The tests resulted in zero failures and today the Michigan State Police confidently issue their officers P320 pistols. Contrary to the baseless allegations, SIG SAUER has always and will continue to put the safety and security of the US Military, the law enforcement community, consumers, and the public first. AG Platkin’s statement that the P320 can fire uncommanded is also incorrect. To date, nearly twenty (20) P320 lawsuits have been dismissed. Despite years of litigation, plaintiffs’ “experts” have been repeatedly excluded from testifying after being unable to re-create a P320 discharge without a trigger pull. SIG SAUER intends to seek dismissal of AG Platkin’s baseless complaint.
The P320 pistol is one of the safest, most advanced pistols in the world. It meets and exceeds all industry safety standards. Its design has been thoroughly tested and validated by the U.S. Military and law enforcement agencies at the federal, state and local levels, along with several major global militaries. Since its development in 2014, the P320 has undergone more testing and technical review than virtually any other pistol in history.
