[QUOTE="Tdylan, post: 955048, member: 70576"] My son is legally blind. Totally blind in the right eye and can barely see out of the left eye. My son's hobby? Guns, guns and more guns. Rifles, pistols etc. It's very hard for him to use a scope or red dot right handed with a rifle, even if it is only 50 to 100 yards at something. He just barely sees the target no matter what scope or sight by using right hand left eye position. Left handed just didn't work for him. The best solution was to hold the rifle right handed and use an offset scope mount to the left. It tilts down at a 45 degree angel to the left and is in the perfect position for his left eye. The sight is an Eotec 17 with the 3 magnifier. Hard to figure out the sight-in at first because the sight is at a 45 degree angel like so, X. Even though he still cann't see the target clearly, it is now fun and enjoyable. PS, always stand behind him! [/QUOTE]
