Lee,

Best way, let him find whats comfortable for him.

When my wife first shot a rifle she had it in a right handed position, but she tried to get her left eye looking down the sights. She was attempting to use the dominant left eye, quite difficult when holding the rifle right handed.

A friend of mine suggested she try shooting left handed, which she did very well. As i said she is a very good shot, and found it natural pretty quickly.

You could probably do with an ambidextrous rifle to let him get used to it (if thats what it is)

Good luck.

cheers

John

Hi Lee,

I am a left handed in everyday life, I shoot left handed, am a  right handed golfer ambidextrous pistol shooter and combinations of both at other things.

I have always shot right handed rifles with no problem, as a left handed person you just have to get on with it.

 Is he left handed at anything else or just shooting?

If so he it is more likely his eye dominance, probably left in his case. 

My wife is right handed in everything except shooting, she is left eye dominant and also rather a good shot.

I would not try and force him to shoot right handed, imagine if someone made you shoot left handed, you would struggle.

Have a look here https://www.shootinguk.co.uk/shooting/instruction/issues-with-eye-dominance-15475   its more shotgun but gives relevant information.

John

Just out of interest, what height are those vortex mounts?

Cheers

John

Great Choice,

Earlier this week i took delivery of a Vortex Diamondback 6-24 X 50 FFP which is destined for my rimfire( probably an anshutz too) when i get my ticket.

I got it early as an offer was on that was too good to turn down. I am intending to get the viper for my main longer range rifle when the time comes, i am liking the idea of having the same ret on both rifles.

It looks great on your Anshutz, and is obviously performing great.

cheers

John

Look forward to that.

cheers

John

A lovely looking rifle..

I wish they did left handed in that model.

Have fun with it..

cheers

John

 Iv installed True flight to my Fenix 3.

However it appears not to work, its visible in apps but click on it and nothing happens.

I guess my watch does not support it, its no big deal as i use Strelok anyway.

Thanks for sharing though.

cheers

John

Actually,

I forgot all about it.....Doh.

I am at Thorpe cloud tomorrow too, would of been interesting.

I will get round too it.....Scouts Honor...😄

cheers

John

Thanks for the reply.

Regards

John

John

Very nice,

Iv just looked on their site, and they also come in left handed.

Can i be really cheeky and ask you what the stock  cost please?

Best regards

Jma

I am also left handed,

As left handed people we all have to adapt, literally from birth. 

 I shoot left handed, play golf/cricket right handed, pistol/ racquet sports i am completely ambidextrous. I am returning to shooting after a few years away and at present have no rifles.

Last time i always bought right handed rifles, mainly for the easier selling potential, other than military rifles Enfields/mausers etc where there was no choice. I never had any problems shooting right handed rifles, even in military rifle comps where some details were timed'

This time i am intending to buy full left handed where possible, although i have never ever shot a left handed rifle, obviously Enfields/mausers etc been the exception. I am not anticipating any serious issues, i will just get used to it.

I have found that the shooting sports contain more lefties than i have come across in any other sport.

Looking forward to been able to buy some new kit.

Regards

Jma

It looks like you lads had a good day, nice photos too.

I have to admit, to been a tad envious....
