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.

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?

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.


Cheers,
