A possibility of a very clean signature for the production of ${W_R}^{\pm }$ is pointed out. If the right-handed neutrino is lighter than ${W_R}^{\pm }$, left-right symmetric gauge theory predicts the decay ${W_R}^{+}\to {\mu }^{+}{\mu }^{+}+2\mathrm{}$ hadronic jets, with the branching ratio ∼3%. The lack of neutrinos in the final state and the absence of a sizable background make ${W_R}^{\pm }$ rather easy to detect (if it exists). Detailed predictions regarding the production and decay rates of ${W_R}^{+}$ are presented.
