CA-available pistol with left-side brass eject?

[BigFatGuy]

I'm sure the answer is no, I haven't found one in a heavy session of internet searching, but I figured I'd ask...

is there any pistol on the CA roster with a left-side brass ejection?

Any pistol I can buy in right-side-eject and convert to left-side eject?

The more I look at this, the closer I get to thinking I'll be better off just giving in and learning to shoot right handed.

It's the right-handed media out to keep my people down. ;-(

No bashing lefties, but does it really matter? It's not like it's ejecting next to your face (like a rifle).

Being a righty, I don't think it would matter to me too much if brass ejected out the left. Hell, as long as it didn't eject straight up. It's frustrating when you have hot brass landing on your hands.

you can bash us all you like. Handedism is the one remaining form of hatred.

(I'm kidding, of course...)

I recently started training in the CAR system of pistolcraft, and one of the main ways the pistol is fired is from directly in front of your chest ("high ready"). As a lefty, each round's brass hits you in the neck or chest and falls right into the crook of your forearms.

I like the system, but I either need to find a true lefty pistol, or give in and become right-handed for this purpose.

LEFTY PRIDE! ;-)

Most revolvers eject brass on the left.

I think Walther P38s are left ejectors.

[G-forceJunkie]

No offince, but I would be leary of training system that ejects brass at your head and is right handed pistol dependent. To answer your question, I know of no right hand eject pistols in todays market.

Maybe try something other than Center Axis Relock

They only eject left when you are in the southern hemisphere.





Oh wait, i think I meant which way the toilet flushes.

Off-roster, but Walther P5's eject to the left

[caldude]

I think Walther P38s are left ejectors.

I know mine is. The current version, the P1, probably ejects to the left also.

how about a tactical scarf or tactical turtleneck?

kinda like this guy

I will be, but I really like the system so far.

We're actually going trolling for other training groups at the next gun show.

The way I see it, there's no chance of me finding the PERFECT system and the PERFECT pistol, so I'm just looking at what concessions I'm willing to take.

I bet you are training with Civilian Arms Training. i know exactly what you are talking about. after a day of level 2 i came home with marks all over my neck and arms.

I am.

The funny thing is, if the S really did HTF, the last thing I'd care about it a bit of discomfort from brass ejection, but I can see that it will make practice considerably more annoying.

That tactical scarf... it's snappy, I gotta admit!

I think a beretta could be swapped over with a couple changes, but would require some custom work. Barrel and slide shouldn't need any changes.

[G-forceJunkie]

You would have to machine the slide for a left handed ejector, and machining a one off custom backwards left ejector. Bu then it still would not work because the cut outs for the ejector and saftey sytem are backwards. Also machinine up a custom frame with the ejector on the other side and the saftey system and fire control system backwards. You probaly could use the stock barrel.
