Gerry,

Thanks--and a good point on left-handers firing right-handed bolt-actions.

But will note that while most right-handed actions have the receiver-ring gas port on the right side, at least one push-feed action that I know of has the port on the left side of the ring. Dunno if that's a real problem, though, because the receiver ring is a long way in front of a shooter's face.
