Bad Lever, Good Lever?

Shut it, Creepy Clown.

Hey, I'm at least right handed for the most part.

What we are freinds .

Nah, that left handed people are the devil! Course, I'm only part devil cause I only write left handed.

The BAD (bolt assist device) is bad idea. They apply stresses on an already relatively fragile part, the bolt release. No thank you and yes I've owned them.



I am left handed and there are far better ways left-friendly an AR.

That's why I like the Phase 5 it's all one peice but like you said and I said with practice anybody can run a AR LEFT OR RIGHT

I do everything lefthanded except mouse (computer), stick (sims and planes), b****-slap and Gibbs-slap. Speaking of...

Like I said do what works for you .I gave some parts to a guy for his AR ambi safety and some stuff like that but he just used the stock one side safety because that's what he likes and was used to or TRAINED on . IT'S YOUR GUN DO WHAT WORKS FOR YOU

You only give clowns more power that way. The trick is to smell the flower.

I gave a good honest try , not bench shooting but mag changes shooting steels .... it can be fast . The trade offs aren't worth it for me especially since you have your support hand there by the bolt catch on a mag change anyway ..... I like a super clean gun and that was clutter for what it brings to the table in function . I can see someone who trains with it a lot being fast with it but by that time you might have lost the muscle memory to run a rifle without one efficiently

No chance in hell, I know what you put in those things...

Support hand is only by the bolt catch after a reload if you shoot right hand

 

[EPS]

Some lefty shooters can use there trigger finger to reach the bolt catch and can release it other's can't

As a lefty... my usual technique is slam mag in with palm of RH, then continue to move RH up til fingertip pops BC.

 

[Boboclown]

Its funny how left handed friendly AKs are compared to the AR...

Maybe Stoner should have found a way to have the mag and bolt release in the middle than on the sides.

That takes practice lol im sure

 

[DuneHopper]

The SKS doesn't care what hand you use

 

[EPS]

I can reach and push the bolt catch with my left trigger finger but like I said some people can't so they have to try out different ways .
Lol the best way is don't run your gun til it's dry and locked back lol

Neither do Russkie guns in general. Hell, their new AKs are more ambidextrous.

I'm beginning to think they DO hire people who can read.

That's the thing about being a lefty... since everything is made for a Right Hand world, we have to improvise our own techniques.

If I remember right the AK bolt don't lock back after last round .
Been awhile since I shot mine but I think when it's dry reload rack the slide or bolt

It doesn't, unless you use BHO mags (but the bolt just slams forward after removal). But aside from the CH being uncomfortable for right handed people, it doesn't really have a bias one way or another for it.
