I don't know how common it is for the firing pin block to fail. Probably no more so than any other auto that uses the same thing, like all your modern DA service pistols. Make a list of all the autos that use something to block the firing pin till the trigger is pulled and then figure out how many of them have a bad rap for that feature. It is sorta like the firing pin block on postwar Smith revolvers. I suppose it is possible for that part to somehow malfunction as compared to one without such a device but I don't see people taking their revolvers apart to toss it out.
