In theory, shops should stock LH gear, but in my experience of both shops and internet dealers, most only have a very limited choice - scopes are no exception. I can't actually blame them for that - stock ties up capital and if there is only a limited demand then market economics will always come first. Take the larger Beiter scope for exapmle - I would love one, but I can only find RH versions. I have always had to opt for what was on the shelf (if anything) rather than what I wanted. Thanks for the info on Specsavers by the way - I can't shoot with a pin or dot and being able to get an undrilled lens made at reasonable cost is a very attactive proposition.
