Which left eject AR?

So I've got a conventional right eject frankenAR with a Stag lower, Hogue grips, Timiney trigger, etc. I've decided that I'd really like a left handed eject. I only know of two companies making them, Stag and Rock River Arms. I've read the reviews and the specs. I'm planning on 3 Gun sort of shooting ... well if I ever get the time. However, not really thinking about NRA bullseye. So any other lefties out there?

So, based on the two answers I've gotten it apparently isn't clear I don't really have an interest in building another AR. I've got a bit over $2k into the one I built up and it probably is about equal, maybe marginally better than a Stag 3G which is probably $700 less.

I'd do it again, I learned what I wanted to learn, but racing rifles are out there now for less than I can make one.

So back to the original question, Stag vs. RRA? Or are there others with left eject that I'm not mentioning? As any of you who read my answers know I'm more of a pistol than rifle guy so this is part of the research.

Thanks,

The difference between a left handed AR and a right handed AR is that the left handed AR has mirrored controls on the lower, a mirrored upper receiver, and a mirrored BCG.

Given that a left handed AR from Stag starts at $1k, a reasonable option would be to take the AR-15 that you already own and:
1. get an ambi-safety ($25): http://www.amazon.com/OTSupplier-com-OTSupplier-AR15-Safety-Selector/dp/B00BHIZ0W2
2. Learn to use a right sided mag release with your right hand (not a big deal)
3. Purchase a left handed BCG ($180) and a left handed upper receiver ($180)
4. Rebuild your upper with the $360 in receiver/BCG (if you don't have a vise, torque wrench, or barrel wrench, you might pay a gunsmith a small fee to swap the barrel for you), resell your right handed parts for $200 or whatever


End result is you have your franken AR with fancy bits but in a left-handed configuration without dropping a grand on a new gun.

Of course, that doesn't help you if you are just looking for an excuse for a new gun.

First - NRA Bullseye shooting is pistol. For the AR-15 it is called 'NRA Highpower Rifle' - and the only AR's you can use are ones in 'As issued' condition.

Second. Unless you plan on buying lots of different barrels and receivers and make installing barrels a new business.......... just go do what every other sane person does - simply go buy a lefty AR upper. Go visit Midwayusa.com or brownells.com or have your local black gun builder put one together for you.

I say this because you didnt tell us squat about your existing upper - and the info about your trigger is about as useful as hat size when buying shoes. Good chance the barrel you have would not be good for NRA Highpower rifle......... so buying a 'Service Match' left handed upper would be the bee's knee's for you.
