If so, how heavy are they and do they come up for sale?
There's a righty on AA now. Lefty's are out there, but they'll take longer to find. Why not consider the 300 and 300S, as well? Just as enjoyable to shoot, and you'll find a tyro lefty sooner. A Tyro w/o barrel shroud is probably a little over 9lbs, and with the shroud a little over 10. For a lighter gun, go for the sporter stock 150/300 w/o the shroud; or a 300S Junior. IMO, the tyrolean stocks have panache, but the sporter stocks are more versatile in terms of shooting position and fit.

Had a shooting buddy who was a lefty….so far as I can remember (and someone will correct me if I’m wrong) do remember left handed stocks. Do not remember FWB changing the right sided cocking lever.
Never saw a left handed FWB 150...doesn't mean they didn’t make them, just never saw one. Some of the stocks (the more rounded versions) were decently ambi and my buddy bought one of those.
Know that RWS’s came in 100% true mirror image left handed versions where the changed the cocking arm’s side.
Couple of old pictures:
Nice Guns Sammi, you have good collection of FWB Lefty’s.
Not to steal the thread, but don’t see lot of rare southpaw rifles in the boards.
Thanks. I'm right handed but shoot lefty due to a dominant left eye. Always torn trying to decide to lean in and try to buy lefty rifles, hard to find usually and limited demand when it's time to move them along. But some of these classics are sure nice to shoot from my comfortable side, which is why I buy them. Hopefully someone will appreciate them when I'm ready to let them go.
All the classic recoilless springer rifles were available with southpaw stocks, but only the Diana 75 and little-known Anschutz 220 had true left-handed actions with cocking lever on left; neither offered Tyro stocks though.
Another option might be older barrel-cocking guns, with their inherently ambidextrous cocking. All offered lefty stocks. The recoilless Diana 60 and 65 offered Tyros, as did the even older recoiling Walther LG 55 and LGV, and Weihrauch HW 55.

They are rare, but Walther actually offered "Kruppelschaft" stocks - right-handed actions with the butt offset for use with the left eye!
Gehmann also makes this periscope-like gadget that will offset a diopter sight's eyepiece for opposite-eye use.

Thanks Mr Driskill for that information but I'm sure those Walthe r stocks are even rarer then true lefty 's. And that's a cool little gadget crossover thing but even that's a cool 262 euros just for that part. Mucho dineros for us southpaw shooters....
True enuff, Gehmann is pretty darn proud of their stuff! But of course you'd only need one as it interchanges between guns easily.
In theory any right-handed gun could be made to work for a righty shooter with a dominant left eye, which some might prefer to shooting lefty actions.
