I don't like long spur hammers and I don't like beavertail safeties, so I compromise on something in between. A pistol is a very personal item; what works for me may not work for someone else.
I don't have a beavertail on mine, but I like the looks and the feel of the big spur hammer when thumb cocking. It's a ritualistic thing with me. Cocked and locked is faster, Condition 3 is safer, etc. I just like cocking the gun sometimes. This 1952 Super .38 has had the hammer added, to make it more like the early Super .38's. Several of my other 1911A1's are pre-WWII commeercial models, which came with the big wide spur hammers. I rarely get bit with these hammers and the A1 grip safety.
