The 1927 model Colt for Argentina is basically a 1911 and parts are the interchangeable, but the hammer and grip safety may have a different external profile.

The Argentine Ballester Molina is totally different, but the magazine will interchange.

Star and Llama are different for sure.

"Match grade" barrel is a marketing label- JMHO.
