Sisk STAR Rifle Stocks Now Available for Left-Hand Remington 700 Long-Actions
Sisk Guns of Dayton Texas has released their latest modular component in the STAR (Sisk Tactical Adaptive Rifle) Stock. I personally went hands-on at NRA 2014 and walked away impressed with the modularity and ease of manipulation.
My personal kudos on the presser. I laughed out loud on the candor and snarkiness. (We read a lot of these things, and they are usually prim-n-proper “Marketing-speak”)
Sisk Rifles now offers the STAR® (Sisk Tactical Adaptive Rifle) stock for left-handed shooters in Remington 700 long actions (and all their clones). Lefties, you may be only 10% of the population, but you still need a rifle stock. Righties? Have you ever watched a leftie work a ‘normal’ action? Rifle maker, Charlie Sisk, thinks that’s barbaric-making them do that–and too slow. So he has adapted his already very adaptable STAR® rifle stock to accommodate this neglected bunch of guys! All it takes is 2 screws, to fit your favorite old-or brand new-Rem 700 action (and all of its clones) into the best fitting stock you’ll ever have.
Complete STAR stocks are available for order at $1,395. Complete customized rifles are also available for $6,495 and are built-to order.

It's always good to see companies come out with products that recognise the potential value of the L/H market. Statistics vary, and there are degrees of left-handedness too, but for any L/H shooter the sense of exclusion and discrimination in cases where manufacturers simply ignore them, or charge them an extra percentage for the privilege of buying a L/H product, is 100% real and inevitably a source of grievance. So a Sisk long-action STAR is a welcome step forward, and hopefully a short/action will follow. It's a pity you couldn't find an actual picture of a L/H rifle and stock to illustrate the piece with, however!
As a lefty (both hand and eye), I've often been frustrated by the lack of options for bolt-action rifles and accessories for left-hand shooters. This is highly welcomed in my mind.
