Old Bugeater Posted December 26, 2013 Report Posted December 26, 2013 Newbie here, not sure if I'm in the right place. I'm wondering if any manufacturer makes a leftie AR10 in .308. I've heard Stag is considering one but that seems to be just chatter. I know DPMS makes an AR15 in leftie but can't find if they make one in .308. Does anyone know if any arms company even makes one? Does this rifle even exist? Thanks for your help ------------------------- Jim
98Z5V Posted December 27, 2013 Report Posted December 27, 2013 There are lots of ambidextrous parts that you can add to a .308 AR that will help you out, but at this point, nobody makes a true left-handed .308 AR. DPMS might have something ambi for the -15 platform, but Stag/CMT is the only company that make a true upper receiver that ejects from the left side (special bolt carrier, upside-down ejection port door that's on the left, special upper to run the cam pin). There are a couple .308 AR rifles that go above and beyond regular ambi parts, too, with a couple custom touches for left-handed shooters. The SIG 308 incorporates a bolt catch on the right side. Knights Armament does a few special things on their SR-25 platforms, too. You're into some serious big bucks of you get into a KAC rifle, man. Ive been looking at their new SR-25 ECC (Enhanced Combat Carbine)... http://www.knightarmco.com/portfolio/sr-25-ecc/

seasprite Posted December 29, 2013 Report Posted December 29, 2013 I'm a lefty and main thing for me was to make sure there was a brass deflector on the upper.
mineralman55 Posted December 29, 2013 Report Posted December 29, 2013 Who makes a quality ambidextrous selector switch? I'm thinking of getting a couple for various ARs both big (308) and small (5.56)

Robocop1051 Posted December 30, 2013 Report Posted December 30, 2013 safety selector? the BADASS with the crank handles is awesomehttp://www.battlearmsdevelopment.com/badass.php I agree. I have the 45° crank on all my rifles.
98Z5V Posted January 1, 2014 Report Posted January 1, 2014 Who makes a quality ambidextrous selector switch? There is only one. It has been named. Other possibilities are not even worth mentioning, seriously. <thumbsup>
