Not quite.They all have hammer-mounted firing pins, aside from the Uberti/Beretta Stampede.

My old Cattleman has no hammer block at all.Uberti has two model types the Cattleman and the Cattleman II.
The Cattleman II has a floating firing pin and does not have the four clicks. The Cattleman has the four clicks and two safety's.
A hammer block that is built into the hammer and a "Swiss" safety that allows the base pin to move backward blocking the hammer fall.
Both models can be had in any configuration you want, barrel length, finish, or engraving.

Taurus Gaucho has frame mounted firing pin.
I was thoroughly abused on a cowboy board for suggesting reliance on that safety notch. Wannabe SOs insisted that hammer on an empty chamber was commanded by God. My only use for such guns is in SASS, and we must load only five in any case. I can't open carry where I live, and concealed carry of a single action is an endless debate, so it seems moot to me which hammer design is used.Just for whatever its worth, here are two Uberti made Single Actions:

The gun on the left is an early Uberti with the hammer mounted safety block, the one on the right has the "Swiss Safe" type of base pin safety. Early Uberti Cattleman and Flat Tops had this type of safety, which was a very good method. Simply setting the hammer at the safety notch activated the safety. The "Swiss Safe" is really no safety at all, as it tends to get ignored.

I recall a video of an Italian copy with a retracting firing pin on the hammer. It looked normal but did not protrude far enough to fire except with the trigger pulled.
