Left handed revolver

Charter Arms has a left handed revolver at the Shot Show. Don't know any details. Go to the link below and they are near the bottom of the page.

Just about all the single actions ever made were left handed.

Gotta love that Sam Colt was a leftie.

My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

I called the sales rep. They're planning to begin production by the end of March '07.

So...that means they're available sometime late '07 or early '08?

I've never considered by a Charter Arms pistol before but if they go to the trouble of making a lefty I'll probably by a short barrelled big bore for a pocket pistol.

after thirty plus years of shooting double action smith and wessons i don't think i could operate that revolver on a reload under stress.

We're headed to the NRA meetings this week, so I'll be sure and check these out. I wonder if it'll be awkward to use because I've grown so accustomed to righty DA revovers?

What he said, except insert "twenty-five" for "thirty plus"...

I've sold the K and N frames, just because I could never get comfortable using them.

I looked for one, tried to order one and was generally unsuccessful until recently. I walked into a pawn shop and there one was, lying in the display case. Turns out they had two. They still have one; said they weren't selling well.

For Lefties there are two good types currently available that are very Left-Hand friendly IMO.

Like Frank said most all Single Actions, and the Dan Wessons with the Cylinder Latch in Front of the Cylinder.

These are available pretty cheap.
