Human beings have not changed in that time frame.....my 1919 manufactured Colt 1911 will still do the trick, as will my 1908 Colt 380 Pocket Hammerless.

There are some older guns, and some modern, that I would not trust to be 100% for SD/HD purposes.

There are no certainties in life, so stack the deck in your favor as much as you can.
