Sharp Shooter's LH conversion

[shovelheadave]

Still in the "dreaming" stage but, I've been thinking about an LRPV but, I'm LH. So I'm kicking around picking up a RBRP and having it converted to a LBRP.........the southpaw version of a RBLP.

Has anyone here had that LH conversion done ? How does it function afterwards....anyone have pics ? Thx.

Why not save some time, SSS has had, (and may have) left handed target actions made from the factory. They came in left bolt, right port. Give them a call.

Don't want a left hand action?

Just asking cause you can get a left hand action from NSS and build your own, in my mind cheap, too.

Dave,



Shoot, Hammer has had a bunch done. Probably has 4 or 5 at Freds right now. Im sure he'll post pics when he sees the thread. DOnt know if he's done one with a target action yet though? Probably has.

What's the surface of the H-S stock that comes on the LRPV ? So long as it's not some rubbery type of thing (Houge-style)....that could be converted to LH like a Duramax.

Don't know nothin' 'bout no left-hand conversions.

Nuttin'.

Especially 'bout no convertin' no target actions.

No. Not me.

Can't prove it.

While we do understand that you can neither confirm nor deny any activities that you may and/or may not have participated in, also neither confirming nor denying any prior knowledge of such alledged activities........would you be able to, through undisclosed channels, be able to provide photographic information of said activities and/or conversions ?

[Hammer]

Cannot confirm nor deny any activities today.

Am on the road working with clients and will not be back to the Ranch until January.

(Cowboys are no good with modern things like cameras. They are good with old things like 45 Colts and double-barrel shotguns.)

At that point in time in January, I will still not be able to confirm nor deny the left-hand conversions of my target actions.

Oops.

there not mine..wonder whose?http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y114/Hammer100/DSC03072.jpg

[shovelheadave]

just by looking at the picture above, the converted action (on on the left), is that a left bolt / right eject then ??

Or is it modified to left eject also ??

[Blue Avenger]

still a right eject. they actually work better at the bench. your looking right into the port.

[shovelheadave]

Yeah, that's why I was thinking about starting off with a RBRP. That way the port is on my side.

That's very cool. Thanks for the pix.

[Blue Avenger]

I'm a LH shooter and a LH gun on the bench bugs me, I can't see the port when not using an ejector.

[Blue Avenger]

If you have the tooling and skill it is not a hard job. notch for bolt handle ( i have thought of having one duel bolt L&R hand.) Weld the old one shut if you want a clean look. (hard part :) )
Ramps for lugs need to be cut for left hand operation.
Little more work to make it work with both bolts as they would have to be identical for head space.

Exactly !!!

I like the bolt on the left but, I do like that I can see the chamber when I'm shooting an RH rifle.
