The pin would bypass the actual FPS, but there is still the linkage in the frame. I had the arm of the Swartz safety cause my slide to bind mid recoil. I'm not an expert on the Swartz system, I'm much more familiar with the series I'm not sure what, if anything can be removed and still be able to function.
A series 80 needs a shim in the frame to take up the space where the safety arm was. My point was, that's the reason some people aren't so hot on the Swartz system.
It's a bit too complicated and too many things need to work just right. Series 80 is much more forgiving, the main argument with that one is it increases trigger pull weight, but they tend to be very reliable.
The Kimber system uses an arm on the grip safety to push a lever up through the frame that then pushes a plunger up in the slide. To disable the whole system you have to punch out a pin in the frame and remove the arm, and remove the plunger and spring assembly in the slide. When you depress the grip safety, a small pin pushes a plunger up in the slide which unblocks the firing pin.
I do like it better in one respect than the Series 80 firing pin block of Colt: it is activated by the grip safety, not by the trigger see diagram , so you get the clean trigger pull sans the click and crunch of the Series 80 guns.
You have to be careful when you field strip and reassemble a Series II Kimber because if you hold it by the grip and activate the grip safety, a little pin comes up next to the disconnector and it will stop the slide from coming off or going on, and if you get muscle-bound with it, you could shear the pin and render the gun unable to fire.
Also, the FPB mechanism can only be accessed by removing the rear sight should you need to do cleaning or maintenance on it. I still believe this is a lawyer-friendly answer in search of a question. I continue to search for documented instances of pistols going off from being dropped on their muzzles, and I have yet to find one documented instance of an unmodified in good repair discharging due to a drop on the muzzle from any kind of normal height — if you find one, please send it to me.
