I can help with every part of that except the removable clip, but it has a hinged floorplate (Remington 700 BDL LH in .30-06). Where is your friend located?

Good point. I started out with a Remington 742 Woodsmaster carbine in .30-06. Works fine for a lefty. Mine's been mothballed since I got the Savage.

I'm a lefty too I shoot a Ruger 77mk11 and love it!! He might check into those they come with scope rings and cost the same as the right handed model.

Browning offers the ABolt in left handed and has a removable clip. Several calibers available i think.

I'm a lefty too, and couldn't shoot a lefty gun to save my own life. I've never shot anything but righty's, and just got so used to them, that a lefty gun is plum strange, the port's on the wrong side and I can't see what's goin on in there.. I do lean toward pistol grip style stocks, because chambering a second round requires less effort. Never had an issue with powder blast in my face with any gun I've ever shot. And while that's not every gun out there, I have shot many different kinds of guns.
