Interested in finding out about the break in period and if there is anything special needed?

I'm a lefty so will need an ambi safety. Do you guys recommend one in particular?

Thanks from a 1911 newbie

I am not a lefty, but i can speak to the break in. A good cleaning and very good lubing helps a lot. Rack the slide a few million times. These are tight guns. soo keep it lubed up with good lube every 100 rounds or so for the first 1000. Wipe the excess off. I have been lucky in that both my DW have been perfect out of the box. I have not fired my valor you saw online yet. I am waiting for the new range to come into play. Though i may have to go out and shoot a bit.. I have an itch.
