I shoot lefty. The only times I've ever been hit with brass was when it came from the guy standing to the left of me.

I had never laid eyes on a left hand weapon until a few years ago
They're made because they sell. Just like FLGRs for 1911s and lighted washer nozzles for cars.The bottom line is, if you want one, buy one. Don't let people talk you out of it (for whatever reason.) If there wasn't a viable market for left hand AR no one would be making them.

I'm a left handed shooter and I specifically chose a right handed AR-15 simply because of the fact that the parts, in case of SHTF, would be more inter-changeable with other rifles out there. I don't have a problem but my brass does go forward and to the right so I might have gotten' lucky. That's my reasoning at least.
p.s.
Everyone before me's post about a brass catcher wouldn't be a bad idea if you do decide to get a RH AR/any rifle. You could at least sell that brass you safe at a gun show and eventually make your money back.
