Our LH plight continues to march forward in the shadows, unnoticed and unable to reach the safety on most guns without (ironically) unsafely doing the one-handed twist of it in our hands to reach the gun.
I concur with the masses, it's a cost issue, and it's too small a space to make an ambi add-on reasonable, like an ambi safety on an AR-15.
Which doesn't work that great anyway for me as the left side hits my hand when I work the lever with my thumb.
Sigh. We endeavor to persevere.
And I, like many, scoff at companies that offer Lefty bolt-action rifles now. It's too late, sister! My agency last week offered to switch my Glock out for one with a LH mag release. No friggin way! 19 yrs and countless rounds, and NOW the Man wants to accomodate me which would really mean I'd never remember the button was moved in a real situation.
We like to be challenged. The only ones more cooler than us are LH and right-eye dominant. They are badasses that can adapt to anything and probably breathe under water.

*That said, I don't use the safeties on the Victory or any of my .22s because they're too dang hard to reach. *******s!
