    Default Looking for a left-handed AR15 - New guy from Colo Springs

    This is my obligatory first post intro. I've got quite a few different handguns (Sig P220 .45, Sig P228 9mm, SA XDs .45, SA XDs 9mm, SA XDm 9mm). I only have one long rifle - a 410/22 combo rifle that my dad gave to me when I was 7 years old. I'm looking to get an AR with glass. I already bought quite a few 30 rd mags without even owning an AR, yet lol. Bought them for the obvious reason. I'll be doing a lot of searching on the net, but if you guys have any good suggestions for an AR15 for a left-handed shooter, I'd appreciate it. I'd like to keep it under $1500. I know that plenty of left-handed shooters shoot right-handed rifles just fine. I'm not going to say that I've ruled out getting a right-handed AR, but my initial preference would be to stick with left. I'm open to any comments and suggestions.

    As far as ranges go, I alternate between Dragon Mans and the new Cheyenne Mountain Shooting complex.

    Welcome!

    Good thing you stocked up on mags. Happy Independence Day!

    My main shooting partner is a lefty. He runs a standard AR with all ambi controls, runs it like a boss! I'm sure some one in the Industy Partner section can find you some lefty parts for a build.

    Probably looking at a Stag or Rock River. I'm also a lefty and have a right handed AR that I've outfitted with ambi controls. You get use to the brass slinging across your face pretty quick.

    Welcome from a fellow lefty.

    I've been running a Stag upper for a long time and it's a champ. The lefty tax gets old but you can totally outfit an AR and it's worth it. At least get an ambi safety. The mag release and charging handles are also pretty key but start to get costly. At least you can swap out parts over time and spread it out.
    The "k" is silent.

    Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to Fight, he'll just kill you.
