Steve,
There are numerous Colt 1911 clones (Springfield, Kimber, Wilson, etc...) that are available with ambidexterous safeties. As an alternative, any competent pistol smith should be able to install an ambi-safety on a 1911. It's a very popular aftermarket accessory.
I've been "into" 1911 collecting for 14 years. They are wonderful pieces of American History. Like potato chips (or Lugers for that matter), "once you've had one, you just can't stop."
