I shoot left handed for some pretty obvious reasons (if you look at my profile photo). I lost sight in my right eye at about five years of age due to a parasitic infection, and lost the entire eye due to a Tumor just last March. So, I learned to shoot a rifle left handed, even though I'm naturally right handed, at a very young age and never looked back.
My question is... Do most of the Left handed rifle shooters on this Forum just settle for right handed rifles (bolt actions, semi autos) and adapt? Or, do you just patently wait for a rifle you like in the caliber you want to come along that just happens to be in left hand, or is available from the manufacture in left hand?
I've personally found that the single shot breach break rifles adapt well to left hand use, but have their limitations. I can shoot right handed rifles, but somehow it just always seems like I'm compromising when I do...
How many of my fellow left hand rifle shooters feel the same way, or am I just being too picky?
