About that gun that the Minneapolis protester was armed with

This appears to be a Sig Sauer P320, a modular striker-fired semi-automatic pistol chambered in 9mm Luger. It’s a popular handgun known for its customizable design, where components like the grip module, slide, and barrel can be swapped out. This particular example looks to be in a carry or full-size configuration based on the barrel length and magazine size.

Added Features and Modifications

From the visible details in the photo:

• Coyote tan grip module: This is a non-standard color option (often borrowed from military variants like the M17/M18), providing a two-tone appearance with the black slide. It’s textured for improved grip and includes a manual safety lever on the frame, which is an optional feature on P320 models for added mechanical prevention of accidental discharge.

• Threaded barrel: The barrel is extended and threaded at the muzzle, which allows for the attachment of a suppressor or other muzzle devices. This isn’t standard on base P320 models and is typically an aftermarket upgrade.

• Weapon-mounted light: Attached to the accessory rail under the frame is what looks like a Sig Sauer Foxtrot1X, a compact LED weapon light (up to 450 lumens) with rechargeable battery via the visible USB-C cable. It has mode switches for high/low output and momentary/constant on.

• Other details: The slide has front serrations for easier manipulation, and it may be optics-ready (common on modern P320s), though no red dot sight is mounted here. The extended magazine (likely 17- or 21-round capacity) is removed in the photo, and the overall setup suggests it’s configured for concealed carry or home defense with enhanced low-light capability.
