Thumb safety on a bullseye 1911

I want to replace super wide thumb safety on my Les Baer PII.  Any recommendations? I am looking at WC. They offer two different sizes .

Looked at EGW. Ended up with BP narrow WC.  Looks good and not wide. The wide LB safety relay is uncomfortable.

Personally I prefer the WC wide thumb safety because I do rest my thumb on it. I vastly prefer it on my EIC gun.

I went with Wilson’s wide safety on my PII. Very happy with it.

Ok, all thru the military I always rested my thumb on the safety.  Always did it as a civilian as well.  My first BE practice I was told by several salty dogs that was a nono...as it would affect my shooting.  So, no or ok?

Most the best shooters I know not only rest on the safety but add forward and downward pressure as well

I may go back to it then...might have to adjust my load because the slide drags along my thumb.  Then again, the new grip seems to be doing well too.  I need to decide and stick with it

yes, your thumb interfering with slide operation is definitely a no no. Just find what is comfortable and works for you.

I shoot with my finger low because a high hold interferes with my trigger finger.
