We obtain a model-independent lower bound on M/sub R/ of 300 GeV for a general class of SU(2)/sub L/ x SU(2)/sub R/ x U(1)/sub Y/ left-right theories without any assumptions about the structure of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrices or the right-handed neutrino mass. Our result is also independent of Higgs-boson, dispersive, and W/sub L/-W/sub R/ mixing contributions, and it holds for a range of bag constants.
