SA 1911 loaded model firing pin
The SA has a titanium firing pin which some recommend replacing with steel. (I know I'm going to get opinions on both sides of that)
Will the USGI 1911 firing in work; or does it require a series 80 type FP that has provision for the trigger operated FP block cut into the FP?

If I remember correctly the SA 1911 firing pin is the same diameter pin used in .38s, which is somewhat smaller than a standard 1911 firing pin. You could probably have a smith make some minor adjustments so that a standard 1911 firing pin would fit, but why spend the money?vJust use the one it came with til/if it breaks, then replace it if needed.
