Are there like left or right-handed versions of this gear sling? If Im right handed - on which arm is it better to wear it? ;)

Michal, there isn't a particular arm you should wear the sling. It really depends on the route. Example, if you're climbing a corner with your left side against the rock and your right side in space, sling it over your left shoulder and hanging on your right side, that way your free right hand can easily access the gear.

Michal, There is only one version of this sling and it will rotate to accommodate right or left-handed use. In fact, I like having a sling because it allows you to shift all your gear from one side to the other when you need to shift your balance during a climb. Happy trails!
