BAR ?
« on: July 06, 2012, 05:23:37 AM »
What was the first year a true left hand BAR was manufactured.  Left hand safety and left side cast.

I don't think Browning ever mfg. a true left hand Bar, with left side ejection.  ;) However the safety can be reversed to either side.

Well there you go. I guess they do make them now, but I still have never seen a older one that was left hand...  ;)
I did buy a older BAR in 338 years ago that had right hand ejection but the safety was on the left side. I simply reversed the safety back to right hand use.
Guess it boils down to money for you.  :o But for me if thats what I really wanted I'd just save up & buy what I really wanted. Like I've said I don't believe they made the early BARs in left hand..
