Here's another lefty story for ya. I'm left handed / left eye dominate, shot left handed all my life (early life anyway). I joined the Marines in 1964 and in rifle training the marksmanship instructors said there were no "left handed " shooters in the Marines. All their equipment was right handed...gloves, jacket, etc. I was forced to learn to shoot right handed. Still shot Expert, with the M14, highest score in the platoon. In Vietnam, I still carried the M14 left handed, though. It took much time and thought to get in right mind set to shoot right handed quickly. Later on I shot NRA Service rifle comp with the M1A and AR 15 and only shot right handed because that was the way I was taught to shoot service rifles on the range. All my hunting and target rifles are right handed....never had shot a left handed rifle until recently. Browning had a Shot Show special X-Bolt Long Range .300 WM in a left hand version. Had to get it. So, I finally shot a left hand rifle....don't like it! Too used to shooting a RH rifle...being able to look into the action, etc. Where before I was able to shoot a LH / RH when hunting I'm now limited to LH because of a right eye retina detachment...pretty much right eye blind.
