As someone who has shot both the berreta (duty weapon) and a 1911 (personal weapon), I like the 1911. I never did like the berreta but that is because I could never get it to "feel good" in my hands. I maintained an expert marksmanship qualification for the berreta for years and worked on many specialized teams that required me to be very accurate at all times and could do it but it just didn't feel "comfortable".

As far as the ensuring you can manipulate the safeties for each prior to shooting, you will need to practice. I have not had any problem with either.

Just my opinion, for what it's worth.
