i think i've seen cz & zastava & ruger offer rt-handed full stock guns. maybe some others too.

who offers or what are the choices in left-handed full stock guns? any caliber, but .308 preferred i reckon.

Unless you include a Ruger #1 RSI, I think you are going to need to pull out your pocket knife and start whittling.

gosh, some nice pics here. i can't whittle nearly that good, even w/my benchmade.

have heard of sako left handers i think, haven't seen any.

well, seems the subject of the inquiry does exist, but might be a tough search. i'm already searching for a single shot stevens bolt-action shotgun, and they too are a needle in the haystack.

maybe my standards are just too high.

thanks for the input guys.

Gus, I'm working on a pre 64 winchester model 70 3006 right now. I'm putting it in a leftlefthand custom maple stock. Don't know how to send pics here. If you would like to look at it send me your email and I'll send pics.

I agree. Is that maple and if so, detail the finish please.

Sorry guys, I missed the request for more info on this project.

It is maple, treated with aquafortis, an old fashioned name for ferric acid. A thread on the project is here
