Isn't it just the safety/selector that's different for a lefty? If so, either get an ambi, or a lefty selector and use a standard lower. My vote would be for using an ambi so that anyone else could also use the rifle, not just him.

yeah I told him about that but he wants the mag release to be at his finger tip and the bolt release he's picky I'm just wondering if anyone has drilled their own

There are several manufacturers who make Billet AMBI lowers but they're pretty expensive. Aero precision makes a forged one at a pretty reasonable price. It comes with an ambi bolt release. Add a Norgon ambi mag catch and a Badass Ambi saftey and you're done

I have a number of their standard lowers and they're gtg

I used ambi parts on a standard lower. It'd expensive, but totally worth it. Makes running the AR as a lefty way easier.

Get an ambi mag release... Pretty sure the bolt catch/release can't be relocated. If you got something like the BAD lever, that could give him more of what he wants. If he's got the $$ you can get parts for most any configuration... Personally, I'd tell him how much more going with that configuration will be. Might be the motivation he needs to learn to shoot a right handed AR...

I bought a SanTan Tactical STT-15 lower to build up a fully ambi AR my lefty daughter can use. The quality was fantastic and we're both very happy with it. They offer STT-Grenades which are "blem" lowers if you're looking to spend less.

Hope this helps!

All the lefty lowers I have seen had ambi type systems for most things. The fingertip mag release was still on the right.

I forget who made it but there's a left handed lower ever thing was swapped but the mag release. It used a different style mag catch.
Detent pins where swapped too. Company also made uppers the same way.

Actually no. I would throw all righties out with the bath water and get an exclusive left one. The reason being that (and a lefty would know this) is the selector in the safe position is one of the more uncomfortable ones to be found on a pistol gripped rifle. Uzi sucks too but not near as bad...
