They didn't use a bunch of cheap basic pistols for this test...

 
TLDR: 2011 and 1911 (series 70) went off.

Nothing else did (including P320 after a bunch of drops)

Nighthawk didn't go off, but something broke and won't cycle.
CZ75 (Cajunized) didn't go off but is now DAO
 
Yes, He did drop a lot of nice sidearms in the vid.

It's old news on the 1911/2011 70 series, iircc that's part of reason colt made the 80 series.

I grew up on 1911's & knowing faults I still carry'em cocked & locked and as of yet never had an ad/nd.

My everyday carry sidearm for a bit now has been fired lots of times & dropped a few ands it's never failed so I trust it.

Course at work my issued sidearm I've only fired 100 times, really only 98 times cause it jammed twice (mag related) & never dropped yet, so I don't trust it yet.
