Our HD 1911 Extractor 9 / 38/ 40 Series 70 Blue with no slot for firing pin stop will not work with the Schwartz (Kimber) style safety.


The steel available to us today is of much higher quality than what was available in 1911 when the 1911 pistol was first produced. Improvements to the entire manufacturing process include better alloys, more controlled furnaces, vacuum heat treat, better tooling, and finite element analysis-all of which we use in production.
