Excalibur makes for both "handed" (i think)...vixen, phoenix, exocet200, exomax, ... and im not sure for Excalibur Relayer Y25.
Darton (great lakes) makes for both "handed". TenPoint both handed. I think most of all crossbow "looks" both "handed"
.
Parker safari classic is right "handed" .... m just guessing

"and im not sure for Excalibur Relayer Y25." That model is "handed", left or right. It's their 25th anniversary model, they are only making 1000 and of that, only 75 will be left-handed. Huge investment potential there, imho.

I think the only problems you would get into is: 1.with the safety not being on thecorrect side, buta lot of crossbowshave the safety on both sides and one could always reach over the stock (carefully) to operate the safety and 2. the fancier thumbhole stocks would be angled for right or left handed. I shoot mine (Horton) left-handed every so often 'cause sometimes a shot in the field calls for it. Last year I probably shoulda shot left handed at a buck I was tracking when he caught me off guard. He came back at me to my right and had me kinda pinned down. I already had the crossbow up and on my right shoulder so I had to twist way around to my right without moving my feet. I pulled it off and hit thespot I was trying to hit (he was @ 23 yds), but it was a little uncomfortable and shakey there for a few seconds. Grndhntr
