Some will die in hot pursuit
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
"Captn Fun, you wouldn't dare lock me out." Famous last words.

Who ever said that is correct. The original 1911 didn't have a thumb safety.[}:)]

For the original 1911 design? You might want to check that one again.

nah, show him the patent drawing like you said before. It shows the original design of the 1911 with the thumb safety like you said. I'm sure he already googled it and withdrew from this thread in shame.
Sorry to totally hi-jack the thread, but this is interesting:
1911 45 Patent drawings, pulled from google patent. The documentation reads very similar to as previously posted but what I would call FN23 the text does not match the posted text.
