Tried a 30 day search with no results.  Give me some manufacturers who make them.

People teach and use different tactics.  I am a lefty and like keeping the gun hand on the weapon and weapon in the shoulder when clearing malfunctions, for various reasons.  That means I have to reach over the top of the buffer tube to disengage the latch.  It takes getting used to at first but is not unsurmountable.  Righties have an easier time of it, especially with an oversized latch.  I would appreciate just getting useful info in response to my request and not smartass comments.  Don't assume I'm a novice at running this particular style weapons platform.  Someone has made them in the past but I don't remember the manufacturer.  I saw a photo from SHOT of one made by arma dynamics but haven't seen any info as of yet.  It is sure an option I would like to try out.

I see a need. I'm right handed. I wish I knew of an option such as PRI's (Big Weenie) to suggest.

uh, I charge my gun by using only the latch side for ease and speed. Try it
