I have a BCM carbine I built for my wife who is a lefty.  The carbine is a BCM lower with the trigger upgrade and the upper is a 14.5" pinned to 16" SOCOM upper, DD Omega rail, Aimpoint T2 and Inforce momentary only weapon light.  I built the carbine as our HD, in the bedroom gun.  My wife has taken more ownership and has begun to shoot more so I want to make it easier for her.  She is talking about taking some carbine courses even.
What charging handle and ambi-safety would yall use to make this more southpaw friendly?  I would like to stay BCM as much as possible, but I am open to other suggestions.

Thanks

I use BAD-ASS ambi-selector with short levers on both sides and a BCM Mod44 charging handle.

I shoot rifle left handed and use:

Stag ambi safety $25
Standard CH (Stag) $17
Norgon ambi catch $80 (ar15.com store)

The Norgon makes the biggest difference to me as you can release the mag with your trigger finger with shooting lefty

I had a Magpul Battery Assist Device but it didn't work for me

FWIW I have the smallest hands of any guy I know so that info may help
