Browning makes some of their BARs in a left handed model. I do not own one so I am not sure of the quality but I have seen several in the past offered on GunBroker.


Good Hunting,

At the risk of invoking the Shockey syndrome---Stag arms makes LH AR style rifles. Complete or upper assy. only.

There were some leftie Remington 742's in the past as well. Not sure if they ejected to the left but the stocks were set up for lefties.

You might have him look at DPMS' website. I own a lefty from them in 5.56mm. Possibly they are making uppers in hevier calibers now. My DPMs is by far the most accurate semi auto rifle I have ever owned.

If looking for an AR type I strongly suggest learnign the standard configuration. Extra cost and part specific rifles can be a huge problem in the future. Especially when sales are not enough to make the manufacturer mill left bolts for a small number of sales.

For me (LE) its not an option. I have found no signifigant issue with right ejection and like the left side charging handle location -- not so much the right side bolt lever on the BAR's. BUT I know I can get parts for my righty BAR's for a very long time.

Have one eye incident shooting a RH rifle LH and you might change your mind.

Having a Eye /Doc. tell you they may or may not save your eye. Changed my thoughts abouot shooting a RH rifle LH.

Browning has discontinued their LH rifles, but there are a few at distributors here and there. Contact me if you want one.

If you don't insist on new, Savage made their Model 110 in left-hand in a variety of calibers. It was their support for lefties that made me a Savage fan long ago.

Also, some lever guns eject out the top, which might help.
