To my knowledge, S&W never made a revolver for a left-hander. There is no safety on a S&W revolver. In order to make it left handed, the cylinder release would have to be moved to the right side, and the crane opening relocated, and the side plate moved to the left side. The engineering and manufacturing costs would far exceed any sales S&W could expect. I do believe there is a manufacturer that has made a left-handed 1911 .45 ACP. I can not recall who that company was.
