My thumb rests on the safety, weak thumb positioned under it extending toward the trigger guard about midway between the mag release and the slide stop. When I am shooting two-handed this way I can operate the safety without changing my grip (strong hand to dis-engage, weak to engage), although its just as easy to slightly alter my strong thumb position to re-engage it too. Not sure if that means anything, I've never had any formal instruction in shooting. Its just the method I found works for me.
I have stupid-long fingers, as much as I love the 1911, I honestly think my hands are too big for them. I've spent a lot of time trying to figure out the grip and finger/thumb position that works best for me.
