Looking for and wondering if they made a left handed New York rifle with a wing safety?

I don't know of any left hand rifles made in Yonkers.

I have a left hand CZ452 American. It outshoots my Kimber.

Kimber of Oregon made left hand rifles in Clackamas. The .22 I have is beautiful and a tack driver. They are also hard to find and pricey when found.

You might, if real lucky, find a Mauser. That's about it as I recall when I researched the concept.

I have one of these and love it... beautiful and a tack driver for sure.

I passed on a Kimber LH 22 at the Tulsa gun show a few years ago. Still regret that decision...

I bargained hard for a LH Classic Model 82 .22 lr and it shoots great. It is part of the permanent collection.

There's one on gunbroker now but it's $2,300 and I think that's too high.

I kept tying to find a Kimber LH .22lr at a decent price for quite a while. I finally gave up and bought a CZ 452 American snd never looked back. It throws darn near everything in the same hole. I sent it out to the CZ Custom Shop and had Harlan cut the barrel to 18 in and re-crown, add a knurled end cap and do a trigger job. I almost never run it without either my Gemtech GM-22 or Dead Air Mask HD suppressors. It still shoots spectacular with the SWFA SS 12X MQ. Including the Butler Creek caps I've got $800 into the rifle, scope, gunsmithing. This one is not going anywhere.

Good looking rig, for sure.

Thanks, OSU_Sig. I really like that rifle. And Harlan Satrang at Triple River Gunsmithing is not hard to work with. His shop is the Custom Shop for CZ-USA.

Where is their custom shop located?

A Rem 581 is my last/only rimfire rifle. GemTech Outback II always mounted. Dialed in for Eley green box subsonic HP's. Boringly accurate.

Oh yeah. I'll bet that is a nice setup.

Funny. That was Mannlicher's quote the first time I took the little CZ out. Took one shot after sighting in. Bull. Took another shot and was squinting to see where it went. Damn near went in the same hole. Turned around to Mannlicher will this semi shocked look on my face, and he says Boring". laugh

True story.
