Dave Moore over at www.ferret50.com will do a left-handed version of his upper.

EDM Arms' Windrunner' has been offered in a left-hand version too.

Might find a state arms used someplace. Larry would make you one to your liking in left hand also.

So, you have spoken with Dave at Ferret 50 and he is backlogged for 6 months?

David made my left hand Ferret50 upper and I had it in about 3 weeks, and that included being over xmas and New Year.

As far as trust goes, he's well earned the trust of the .50bmg community, and I consider my Ferret50 to be some of the better kit I own.

But since that is not the answer you want to hear, my LAR Grizzly Big Boar can be shot right or left handed equally comfortably.

The biggest problem with shooting a RH bolt .50 is the long bolt throw. That, and I really don't like having that massive bolt handle right next to my face when I am shooting.

you know. I hate to see a great guy like Dave loose any business. But you know HBAR, I dont think Dave would be interested in doing business with a turkey like you. Save your time and dont bother calling him. You sound like a spoiled child and many business wont want to do business with someone like you. Over and Out

thanks max paul for shitting on my thread.

i have worked hard for my money. i own my home and 80 acres outright. i have 6 kids and i have saved prudently. .
i have seen way too many companies screw people out of their money. either on purpose or not but, either way people are out money. companies go belly up everyday. the beauty of having my own money is i can spend it as i see fit.

i dont want to wait for a left handed shell holder gun. i dont want a shell holder gun. i dont want a 50 upper mated to my AR lower.

i was very specific in my question. i asked which right handed gun works best for a left handed shooter. not, can some internet commando can talk shit to me. if you are not smart enough to answer my question, stay out of my thread.


You know those POS uppers win alot of matches....

I bought an 82a1 locally from a guy I know. He is starting a business, and needed capital. New, but much cheaper than new, with 5 magazines.

I know its not a match grade, shell holder style, pin to an ar lower, so I know it wont meet your approval.

Testy fellow, aren't we? Based upon the original question that you no longer wish to have as public record (and that I barely remember) I would say the 82A1 was out of your price range.
I am glad that you were considering my unspoken approval. You did well.

Oh, and re enlist. We need more angry f#$%&rs like you in the service. I wasn't angry enough to do a second enlistment.
