I value everyone's opinions and thank you for responding. I think I will probably get a right handed AR. I too have extensively fired them in the military and aside from the occasional rogue piece of brass, I have adapted well to them. Another reason is because I have 4 boys that will learn to handle it also. They are all right handed. I'd rather accommodate then have them learn. Besides it is my first AR. I'll play around with it and find out what I like and don't like and then I'll get one dialed in for me.
On a side note... Rock River Arms now has true lefty ARs
