Did all the races find a way to make everyone ambidextrous? Or was the left handed gene just eliminated via natural selection or other means? I would like to hear some theories on this

There are rule for handidness in inquisitor....
you choose a hand, any weapon not in that hand has penalties.
you can also spend more to go ambidextrous.

All space marines come with the ambidextrous skill

As far as Space Marines they were probably all modified to be ambidexterous in case of injury in battle.

Blood calls out to blood, so they say. Let us spill that of our enemies with all due haste, that we may hear its cry all the clearer!

I would imagine this was developed with MOUT/CQB in mind so minimal expose while shooting around corners

Being left handed is a problem in cqb? Apart from all marines being ambidextrous. This is an obvious troll.

OP About half of the LotD models are left handed and are holding their boltgun with their left hand.

Aye... got a lefthanded mate who does everything with the left, except writing. And we're not so old that schools forced you to write with the right hand, he's just become used to it for some reason.

I dont see the point of all this talk and what turned into a talk about eye colors. I think its simply that gw couldnt be bothered to model 2 hands as someone has said.
