I have a question I'm hoping someone can help me with. My agency allows 1911s as alternate duty weapons if they have a firing pin block. I currently have a series 80 Commander, so I know it has one. I am looking at purchasing another 1911 and I am wondering what other manufacturers use this system. Several of our armorers and firearms instructors who are very knowledgeable state this is more durable than the Swartz system in the Kimber and S&W guns. I am not asking for a debate about whether that is true, just trying to find out who else uses the series 80 system.
Thanks for your help.
