No.
The detent channel on the safety is only machined on one side. If you flip it to the other side, the detent will be useless. WIZZO |

At first I did not understand your question, then I figured it out. No what you ask will not work. If you want a safety on the right side ejection post side only then you will need to buy an ambi. safety from DPMS or Bushmaster perhaps others and grind off the std. one leaving only the wrong sided one. Or you could just leave it alone as is and have the lever on both sides.

Or put a matching detent channel "trough and holes" on the opposite side of the selector.

Thanks for the info guys. It's been a while since I tore down an AR but I suspected this was not right.

What you are trying to do will not work.
For a lefty, I might suggest that you take a look at the new adjustable reversable safety that JP Enterprises has out now. link here! I installed one a couple of weeks ago. It is a quality piece and has a good feel to it. However, I'm not a lefty and have not researched what a lefty or ambi selector would cost as an alternative. So the price may or may not be a little high. |

You might want to send an IM to Tweak and ask where his GF got her left handed selector.
ETA: She has an account, 9milie I think, but I haven't seen her post here in a long time. |
