Has anyone modified a Magpul Hunter American stock to accommodate a lefty action?

[Jay Ell Gee]

Late last year, my wife decided that she wanted her very own 6.5. She settled on an American Predator in LH. It was a good combination of weight and balance for her. I wanted to build on lefty 700 action to avoid this exact problem, but here we are.

I was looking at the Hunter American Magpul stocks. With no ejection port cutout, would it be possible to cut a notch on the left hand side for the bolt knob and be usable on a lefty action? If so, does anyone have any recommended smiths that would do something like this?

Thanks in advance everyone. Maybe one day I’ll build her a 700, but she is committed to using her Ruger for now.

I would look around more. There are way better stocks out there for the same price range.

Agreed. My concern is that we will end up dumping tons of money into a not so nice stock. There is a company making lefty chassis systems, I wish she would try those. Maybe someone here will have a better idea.

Did you ever come up with a solution to the left hand chassis? I've looked myself and came back empty handed. That is, unless you want to come back empty pocket.$$$
