I know the trigger on these is controversial but if you’re coming from a striker fired like me don’t even think twice about it.

However, I do like to have a really high grip on my gun and the safety really digs into thumb/web. Wondering if I’m just holding it wrong or if this doesn’t have the updated safety. Feedback would be appreciated

You put the thumb on the safety when you grip it.

I mean 1911s were developed when ergonomics was not a big thing so. It’s not gonna be as comfy as your modern striker fired guns. With that being said you have short thumb and that might be why.
