I thought most of the smaller parts to a 1911 were interchangeable and not caliber specific. I know the frame feed ramp, breech face and obviously barrel are all caliber specific.
I'm looking for an authentic Colt extended safety lock, but cant find one available... they are all sold out everywhere. Then I see on available but it says its for a 38 Super, and another one for 9mm. IIRC Ive seen this too with slide lock levers. Are these parts really caliber specific? I'm guessing its just the web designer doesn't know better.
I'm looking for a Colt extended safety lock, like the ones that come on their new Competition guns. Seems like these are a popular item and sold out everywhere, Id be grateful if anyone can share a link to buy one...

So what is the list for caliber specific parts on a 1911?
