I sent Benelli an email with that same question about 6 months ago and still have not heard back. I went ahead and bought the right handed version because the shells ejecting don't bother me. I think most of us are so used to shooting right handed guns that we don't even notice the shells. I love that gun and I figure if it comes out in a lefty model with 3.5" capacity in a few years I will sell this one and buy new.
