Ambedextrious Semi Auto Pistol Recomendations.
« on: January 09, 2014, 04:16:48 PM »
I once had a Ruger P89 in 9mm that i really liked and made the mistake of selling it.  :bash: I really liked it because the Mag eject, safety/de cocking lever were all Ambi. I mostly shoot south paw but can shoot either right or left handed (I'm equally uncoordinated!  ;) ) I missed a deal on here from a member here on a  p 85  same basic design.  What USED  weapon should i look for? I prefer 9mm I don't really want to spend $5-600 on a new gun. I prefer full size and 9mm What say you?
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

I would say a Glock but that is just my opinion. You can switch the mag release to accommodate lefties. I am sure other guns are great too though.

What ever you do, get a feel for it, make sure you are comfy with the pistol.

If I was to buy a gun off looks alone, I would never own a glock, but in my hands they are very comfortable. Every one is different so try before you buy no matter what it is.

Look for an FNX-9.  It comes with 3 17 Round magazines, and 4 backstraps, and is completely ambidextrous with a decocker, and single/double action, and for a full size pistol, is remarkably compact.  I like mine so much that when an FNP-40 came available, I sold my XD-40, and then sold my XD-45 and bought an FNX-45.  FNH just came out with the FNS series of striker-fired pistols, but being old-school, I like a hammer on my pistols.  :twocents:

I am  a south paw too, and I love shooting 1911's. Most of mine, that didn't come whit one, I have outfitted with an ambi safety. I believe you can ambi the mag release, but I have gotten used to the stock ones. Glock is a good choice for and lefty too. All the others mentioned work as well. It's just a matter of choice.
