Left hand youth rifle

Anyone have a line on a left-hand bolt-action youth rifle in .223 or .243 that is actually available?

Savage and Remington did make these at one time but finding one has proven difficult. A number of dealers advertize as having them but either they are "no longer available" or "out of stock with no anticipated date for delivery".

Thanks for any direction

Get a Ruger # 1. Left or right handed, doesn't matter.

Seach for a Rem 700 SPS. I got one in .243 for my youngest LH & Youth. I would be willing to let him sell it if he was grown out of it but it may be awhile. Nate

Thaks Nate - that's one of the rifles I was doing a search on but it seems everyone is smart enough to keep theirs knowing how hard they are to find.

If you decide to sell at some point, keep me in mind and shoot me a PM.

I just checked one guy that stocks the best assortment of youth guns I found when I was shopping and he's OOS on every one of them that's lefty!

I didn't realize there were so many in their right mind!

I'll keep my eyes open for one while I'm off shift. Would you be willing to get used? Nate

Hi Howard,

If for some reason the warehouse inventory taht said it had "one left" doesn't I'll PM you about your son's 7-08.

Thanks again,

I'll second the browning micro-hunter. I bought one in left hand for my wife in 7mm-08 and it is a sweet shooting little rifle.
