Does a left handed AR9 bolt carrier exist?

Howdy! As the thread title says, I'm wondering if such an animal as a left hand eject AR9 bolt carrier exists. I built a right handed AR9 from my granddaughter, but she seems to be left eye dominant so I thought I would put together a left handed rifle for her to try using the existing right hander to provide the barrel, etc. But I'm having trouble finding just the upper and bolt carrier. Do such things exist, or are they the proverbial unicorn poop? Thanks!
 
Savage offers LH rifles. Not sure if they’d have any accessories or options as to what you’re looking for. I have a LH AR I purchased from them several years ago.
 
Gibbz made one at one time. But they show out of stock currently. I do not know of anyone else, other than possibly Mean Arms that will be producing any Left Handed bolt carriers (and theirs will only work with their barrels from what I've heard).
 
Left handed ar9's are a rarity; non-proprietary parts are essentially non existent. In the mean time if you want a left handed ar9, Foxtrot Mike just released a model for a solid price. Unfortunately 9mm AR's need to have a lower that utilizes an ejector on the opposite side of its ejection port. If you did manage to find a bolt by itself, you'd still need to find a lower.

For now FM is probably the cheapest; they also stand behind their products so you don't have to worry if something goes wrong
