Any lefties shooting AR-10s out there? How's the brass and blast? I've shot right handed 223 with no problem, but the 308 seems like there'd be a little more in your face. The Rock River 308 seems left hand friendly.

Re: Lefties and AR10s
they have the nub to deflect the brass should be able to shoot one just fine.

Re: Lefties and AR10s
I shoot an AR10 lefty, but run it suppressed with an adjustable gas block, just enough gas to run the bolt.

Re: Lefties and AR10s
I've never had any issues with my Armalite SASS or any of my .223 AR-15's. It's all in how you are trained to use your rifle. I have several left handed bolt guns but I think I would have a tuff time with a lefty AR

Re: Lefties and AR10s
My slab side LR-308 must be the odd duck because it throws the brass almost straight back. It currently has the stock DMPS gas block on it until the adjustable JP gas block comes in.
One of my buddies, who is a lefty, shot the rifle and surprisingly didn't eat a casing. YMMV

Re: Lefties and AR10s
I like my left handed Stag, but they don't make a 308. It wasn't all that difficult to get used to after owning a "regular" one for so long. I'm sure we all grew up shooting right handed guns since that's all that was ever around. Once you shoot an actual gun made for a lefty, it feels natural about 10 rounds into it. The Rock River looks like it's designed to be ambi, except how it throws the brass, which I hope won't even be noticable.
