I'll break ranks and disagree on the importance of the safety here. The lessened importance of a safety may hold true for a true target grade pistol intended for use on a controlled firing line (under controlled conditions) but...the Victory is a gun designed more as a "do all" /plinking gun. (Much like the 22A). Therefore it has potential by intent, to be carried in a loaded condition in/out of a holster while in the field. Without getting into the ambi safety argument, I'll argue that a good accessible safety is important on any field gun. IF field use is the OP's intended use, I'd vote your $ would be better spent on a good 1911 conversion with ambi safety or a quality (617)revolver.
