Well, I must admit, I can't stand the 1911 grip safeties. Never seen the point of them, in airsoft anyway, especially since I dont carry my pistol cocked and locked. I have two M1911 projects running atm, one retains the grip safety on the basis that it needs to be accurate to the screen-used model it is based upon the other scraps the grip safety altogther - something which I am looking foward to. Besides, I think some M1911s actually looks better without them anyway:
