I think you could swap the left side with that of a blue yonder or Abu 6500 Power Handle Left Side Plate and remove the mag mechanism. You'd also need the clicker gear (part No. 19373).

This may also suit your requirements:

Spoke to Pete and he said it cannot be done on the 6500 sports as the sides are bevelled
