Any recommendations on a PCC for a lefty? Preferably something that is readily available for Canadians. I know the ruger is popular, but I've heard it throws brass in your face.
 
I've seen lots of leftys shoot the Ruger without a problem. Too bad the Beretta is on the OIC list. You could easily change those to right or left. Maybe there are some others like that?

The JRC is easily converted to lefty. You can convert the x95 to lefty as well, but you'll need to buy lefty parts to do that.

I know ejection is reversible, but what about controls?(edit- I'm thinking about the ASR not JRC).

As a lefty shooter myself, I'd rather the controls swap over than the ejection if I can have only 1.

I'm also interested in a lefty friendly pcc.
 
Im a lefty and for IPSC PCC competitions I run a Raven 9 platinum (comes setup for lefties), if you have the money its totally worth it. but if you're looking for something under $2500 I would get a ruger PCC and get the tandemkross kit for it.

Ruger PCC with a Tandemkross rotating safety makes the rifle extremely lefty friendly.
 
I'm a lefty, don't worry about shooting brass in your face, doesn't happen. the only guns lefty can't shoot are bullpups unless they can be converted to left.
I have a Ruger PCC, the mag release can be switched and the bolt handle can switch sides.

Exactly this, I have shot many different PCC’s as a lefty and never had brass or burnt powder in my face from any of them. Some say this is a thing but if so they must be a hell of a lot more sensitive than me. I also run a Ruger PCC and it is fine for a lefty, a bit heavy but excellent reliability.
 
One issue I just remembered- the safety selector can be installed on the left or right side but it will only "click" into safe and semi on the one side. If you switch it over to the side it doesnt come installed on it will still go on safe and semi but it just free spins. Doesn't actually lock into place. You could always buy a proper ambidextrous one.

Or just leave it alone and use it as it was designed / installed? It's not that difficult to adapt to a RH safety. Screwing with a safety so that it doesn't work properly is a recipe for disaster.

Almost everything can be switched. The only control that can't be swapped is the mag release.
You swap bolt parts to left eject, swap the cover plate onto the right side to keep from being gassed, and put the charging handle on whatever side you prefer. I've converted mine over for my dad as he shoots left, and he had no issues with the mag release being on the left side. The way the ergos are on a JRC you're wrapping your hand around the front of the magwell anyway, lefty or righty. Much the same as usinf the bolt release on a M4 as a righty.
I've never had the mag release out, but the button looks like a regular AR part to me. I wonder if an extended AR mag release works on a JRC, the bigger pad could make it easier for lefties.
