Yes, and I assume that most modern renditions use the same safety improvements. I know Colt makes some Series 70 guns still but they are special cases.

I am no 1911 guru, nor do I aspire to be. I am open to being corrected.
Correction: Most Colt, Kimber, some S&W, Para, Auto Ord, some Sig, maybe a few other 1911 mutants have mechanical firing pin obstructions.
Some others consider a titanium firing pin to be adequate drop protection.
In general, the higher priced the gun, the closer to standard lockwork.


I have handled but not shot the S&W Plastic M&P 2.0. If the trigger is significantly better than the original, I am not sensitive enough to tell it.
