    I disagree. While i am a lefty as a matter of fact, I know plenty of right handed guys that practice weak hand drills and other positions/variations that make the ambi very viable. It's just another option, so i say why not?

    Exactly. Also, at a lot of matches/comps they'll often have stages which force you to swap to weak hand, plus for some like me I'm one of the few that actually use my trigger finger for flipping the selector when I'm taking certain shots. I know it's weird, but it works for me and several others I know.

    It has been a big help to me, and others I'm sure. The knowledge here is a bit overwhelming at times, but I appreciate every bit of it.

    I have shot enough to know the ambi safety is a must for me. Otherwise I can deal with a right handed gun.

    Same here. I can "deal" with a right handed weapon, but why if i'm not forced too? If there's an option that makes manipulation and acquisition easier, then i say go for it. Work smarter, not harder

    I did get to shoot one with an ambi safety this weekend. I loved it, it was a polymer gun though, it was very light but maybe a bit too light. I actually had trouble steadying it. A gun that light takes getting used to.

    Ok need an honest opinion. I'm very seriously looking at this upper from PSA. $300 fully assembled with free shipping. With iron sights I think it would be a good jumping off point to get the feel for things.

    Thanks in advance!

    I would stay far far away from the PTAC line.

    Really? Why is that?

    What about the CHF?

    I second that. You haven't seen sloppy until you've seen ptac. I've since quit getting any PSA parts, even tough I hade some stashed. The few components I had got gone very quickly. The difference could be seen and felt...

    You get what you pay for. 299 for a complete upper, sheesh. But then again psa is home to the 39 dollar lower. Saving money in life is not a bad thing but cutting corners on gun parts may end up going really bad.

    People really do themselves a disservice and handicap themselves by only shooting on one side of their body. Training should be 50/50. Learn to be as proficient on one side as the other...

    Ok thanks, I was under the impression their stuff was better quality than that. Ill keep looking, or just buy a gun off the shelf.

    Thought I was onto something. Oh well...
