Eventually (probably when I get home from overseas next year) I'm going to send my Colt (new rollmark) Government Model off to get an ambidextrious safety installed.
Here's the thing. I do NOT want an extended safety. I don't shoot with my thumb on the safety (can't really do that anyway, with the standard safety and grip safety). Extended safetys, on pistols I've handled in stores, when pushed down press against my trigger finger and it's bothersome. Besides, I don't like the way extended safeties look.
However, extended safeties, beavertails, and commander hammers are by far the most popular these days. Does anyone even MAKE a non-extended, ambidextrious, Colt-style safety? Something well made; this is not a part you want breaking on you.
