Actually I think that a case can be made that all S&W revolvers are lefthanded. I realize that the latch is positioned for the right thumb......but the cylinder opens to the left. Practice will make for decent weakhand loading for we righthanders BUT how many times have you seen the righthander move the open revolver to his/her left hand and use his strong hand for loading? A lefty can transfer the revolver to his righthand ,thumb the latch, eject and reload with his strong hand and switch back at least as readily as a righthander.
