It’s canon: Word of God.
As nosey as I usually am with projects in development, I’m usually disappointed when my media requests are declined. Unseenkiller, though, is a different animal when it comes to devving, so he isn’t shy when the cameras turn on.
In fact, he’s liable to just show off and talk about all the interesting things he’s cooking up there in his wizard tower. I managed to slide into his spellcrafting chamber at the right time recently, and boy did it pay off.
Hiding in Plain Sight…
Secrecy is not the word I’d associate with Unseenkiller, as I’m well acquainted with how candid he can be both online and in person about his projects and his ideas. He once admitted to myself and a collection of other nerds that he often dreamt in CAD, and that one or two of his releases had come to him in a dream.
When one of his projects goes into beta, it’s not usually anything to be hush-hush about, which is rare in this community. You’ll have to believe me when I tell you that I’m very surprised I had not heard anything about this P320F he’s decided to give us a peek at.
Of course, once he got rolling, I got all the juicy details.
This little slugger is the newest iteration of Unseenkiller’s recent pistol/PCC kick, and more specifically an expansion of the “F series” he started with his 17F build not too long ago.
It features all the creature comforts of the 17F, including his now trademark folding chassis and additional picatinny attachment point. Good news for all you P320 builders out there, all four sizes are going to be represented when this release sets sail, with support for 3.6″, 3.9″, 4.7″, and 5″ barrels.
Didn’t know there were 4 versions of the P320? Neither did I.
Yeah, because that’s supposed to make sense somehow. Thanks, Sig Sauer, very cool.
Also included in the package? 4 stock sizes and a brace, with interoperability with 17F accessories, as well as compatibility with many of his already existing designs, meaning this is likely the start of a truly customizable family of releases.
Speaking of Interoperability…
The most impressive thing Unseenkiller mentioned to me was that this new P320F he’s been working on uses many of the same internal components as the 17F, so the parts kit he already has on Parts Dispensed will do you just fine with this build as it did that one.
Of course, this required some serious time and effort to implement, but the best black magic always does. I’m sure we’ll see plenty of builders casting spells with this one soon, though Unseenkiller hasn’t decided on a date yet. He assured me the files would drop very soon, but knowing the old wizard as well as I do, I’d bet on a few extra days of polishing and photoshoots before this one premiers on his social media.
And Before You Go…
Being a Sig Sauer-based project, the “lowers” are not considered the serialized part; that would be the fire control group now. So once you’ve got them, you can print as many of these “grip modules” as you want, guilt free. They might even make good stocking stuffers, no pesky FFL paperwork required.
As always, signing up for our mailing list and following our social media is the best way to stay informed about new file drops, including the P320F when it drops, so don’t skip out on those.
I’ll see you guys on the next one.
