Yes and no. It is possible for a 1911 to fire when dropped however it is unlikely. Many currently manufactured 1911s (including series II Kimbers) have a firing pin safety that virtually eliminates the possibility of the gun discharging should it be dropped. Guns that do not have a FP safety should be fitted with an extra power FP spring, which will do wonders to reduce the risk of the gun firing if dropped. Carrying the gun C&L has little do with the gun firing if dropped. That could happen in Condition 2 just as easily.
