Old Place Posted March 30, 2020 Report Posted March 30, 2020 (edited) Looking for a left hand upper with a right side charge handle reciprocating or non. I actually would prefer a reciprocating. I've been searching but I didn't see any but I can't seem to keep at the AR15 stuff out of searches no matter how many versions of searches I've done. Edited March 30, 2020 by Old Place
montanamac Posted March 30, 2020 Report Posted March 30, 2020 I'm a lefty and I use a standard upper but I added an ambidextrous charging handle, they can be found by just searching for - AR 10 ambi charging handle.
Old Place Posted March 30, 2020 Author Report Posted March 30, 2020 Thanks, looking for a side charge handle in particular. Definitely as a southpaw, you get use to casings coming across your field of vision. But figured if someone knows of one somewhere.

I've never seen a lefty version of a large AR, there's probably one out there somewhere but I wouldn't know where to point you....
unforgiven Posted March 30, 2020 Report Posted March 30, 2020 Rock River is ambi safety,bolt release. As a lefty my only issue is with slick side upper then it's brass snacking.
Old Place Posted March 31, 2020 Author Report Posted March 31, 2020 (edited) Gibbz makes one, but it seems like some people are having issues with them. I'd hate to pay that sort of cash for a defective product. Edited March 31, 2020 by Old Place
ColinGSeries Posted June 23, 2020 Report Posted June 23, 2020 Stag Arms makes a lefty DPMS pattern AR-10 (don't let the receiver parting line fool you as it's just their thing). Very good quality stuff. I'm a lefty as well but I'm building my own with a blemished receiver set from them that's righty - sadly all they had for blem. Even blem parts are great though. I have a couple tool marks but even those are minimal because the finish is still excellent and covers it well. https://www.stagarms.com/stag-10-firearms/?_bc_fsnf=1&Caliber=.308&Ejection+Orientation=Left-Handed+Ejection
Old Place Posted August 7, 2020 Author Report Posted August 7, 2020 Thanks! I ended up getting the Gibbz. I've only shot 40 rounds through it as I'm waiting for sights. I spent way too much on this "build" if you want to call it that. Complete franken gun, hahaha. I now think I would have rather have had a reciprocating bolt style, but it works fine. My only real complaint from the Gibbz is the edges are kind of sharp on the charging handle. If it ever gets refinished, I'll machine some of the harsh corners.
