FUNNY you should mention that...
Because I started shooting pistols with 3rd generation Smiths in 1990, I got USED to ambidextrous safeties. When I bought my first KEEPER 1911 (Springfield) in 1995, I added an ambi-safety, and have either purchased 1911's with them, or added them, ever since.
In FACT... I just picked up a new RIA full-size, as a truck gun for my second truck, last Tuesday. Turned right around, and gave it back to their 'smitty, and told him - "Install an ambi-safety on that for me, if you would please."
Hope to pick it up next week.
