Re: My left handed RARR

I have been discussing doing exactly this for at least a year as I am also a hardcore Lefty. Even my ARs are left handed. Bugged Ruger many times about a LH version, but they always reply "no plans to offer this rifle in a left handed variant.
Anyway, can you please share what barrel wrench you used and any other helpful suggestions?
I bought a Savage FLCP in .223 but that conversion is going to cost a lot more than 2 complete RARRs will, weigh more, and be less likely to function reliably.

Thanks in advance.

Glad to help a fellow lefty.
I used a pipe wrench to remove the factory barrel nut and tossed it bought a replacement slotted nut from pacific tool and gauge and used a 1 1/2" spanner wrench from snapon to tighten it.
Set head space off of one of my reloaded rounds.

Fantastic! Thank you Sir!

I bought the 300 blackout today. Going to raise funds for the left-handed 223 ASAP.

Thanks again
