I’ve decided to not buy any more right hand rifles. Not buying any more pistols that aren’t ambidextrous either.

When I first started hunting 55+ years ago the only LH bolt guns were Savage and Weatherby and I couldn't afford a WBY. I had a 110 in 243 that I shot a lot of deer with then got one in 300 WM. Got rid of both of them for a Rem 700 BDL 270 that went everywhere with me and killed dozens of animals. Sold that when I got my Browning Micro Hunter.
I still shoot RH rifles and can work a RH bolt pretty quickly.

Ambi pistols don’t get talked about enough. I’m with you, all of my new pistols have to be Ambi. Not reversible, but Ambi. I recently bought the FN FNX and love it. FN seems to think Ambi is important. There are a few H&K that meet the requirements too and even the new Ruger American pistol. The Ruger looks to be kind of a cheap set up, but scores major points with me for being fully Ambi. When it comes to shooting pistols, I was always taught to practice as much with weak hand as with the strong hand and Ambi makes it more fun. Most people I talk to don’t think that kind of practice is necessary, but I do.

None!

I’m left handed but was lucky enough to be right eye dominant and to have had an uncle that realized it early on and taught me to shoot right handed. I feel bad for guys that are left handed/left eye dominant and have so few left handed guns to choose from.

I'm "down to" a few Mauser 3000's (2 in 270, an '06 and a 7 mag), a couple of Mark V's (.270 Wby and .300 Win), a Sako AV Classic in .338 Win, and a 700 CDL in .223. Also a Rem 1100 and a Stag AR. All lefties.

LH specific shooters include:

Rem 700 BDL .270 1972 vintage
(which replaced 1972 788 .308 ................... not sure that was a wise decision but I hated the RH ejection)
Rem 700 BDL .308
Browning Micro 7-08
Browning Micro 308
Savage 110 7-08
Tikka T3 30-06
Lyman Deerstalker .50 cal flinter
Lyman GPR .54 cal flinter
Rem 870 - 20g
Rem 1100 Trap
Benelli M1 - 12g
Fabarm Axis 12-g trap
Beretta O/U trap
Savage .22 LR

Still waiting for that left hand Model 7 to appear but doubt that will ever materialize.

I am a true LH / left eye dominant sinistral person. Surprisingly, both our adopted sons (different birth parents) are right handed and left eye dominant. I identified that disability at a young age so at least they can use their old man's guns with both eyes open.

I don't think Remington ever made a Left Hand Model 7. (Could be wrong.) Long story short, built a faux LH M7 about 20 years ago. LH Rem 700 Short Action, McMillan Model 7 stock inlet for the LH SA receiver, 20" SS Rem M7 take off barrel chambered .243 Win, Burris 2x8 Signature scope (small objective). With the standard fill McM stock, not the lightest rifle I have ever owned. But, it kills stuff just fine...

Browning Xbolt 22lr

Do you mean Browning T-bolt? If not, I didn’t know that Browning made the X-bolt in 22lr.
