Thread: Left hand .223 using AR mags?

Thinking about a Troy pump action, and a left hand bolt action that would ideally use the same AR-style magazines.

Visited the websites of Ruger, Remington, Savage, Mossberg, Howa etc. Savage do offer 2 options (and good on them!) but they're both heavy chassis types...not really suitable for what I do.

Any suggestions fellas?

Mate - Have owned one in 300Blk and a mate had a 223 - The extraction of the Troy played havoc with the brass so maybe if you have lots of factory yes but if reloading I'd be checking on that to make sure it wasn't just his one.
