(TANK) Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 I've been reading this board off and on for 3yrs and finally made the purchase of a SBEII in black. I read many times about the camo/black debate and the black won me over. Tucker your cleaning tips are great I ran them off in color a year before I bought the gun I shoot a Lefty as well due to eye dominance problems. Quote
Matt D Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 It's good to welcome another shooter and another lefty. Enjoy your new gun. Quote
Novaking Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 I'll let the Lefty thing slide. Welcome to the forum. Quote
hognutz Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Welcome... And a fine choice in a shotgun I might add. I too will let the left hand thing slide. Enjoy!! Quote
(TANK) Posted August 29, 2009 Author Posted August 29, 2009 Not fond of the lefty deal myself I do everything else right handed. A big adjustment but so far so good at this time. The salesman at another store tried to talk me out of the left handed version due to loading he said it would be very hard. I found I have to keep shells in both pockets now.lol Quote
silverking00 Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Am I the only left handed shooter to use right handed guns ? Crosseye dominance. I have always shot that way and never had any problems. Is there any advantage to having the left hand action ??? Quote

Is there any advantage to having the left hand action ??? I shot that way for years. I decided to try a left handed gun due to the shells flying across my face and I have gotten powder in my eye dove hunting before .My first attempt at a lefty model was a Browning BPS ejects from the bottom.

silverking00 Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 I wear glasses so I haven't got the powder in the eye. As for the hulls I don't even see where they land most of the time let alone see them eject from the gun. Quote
tucker301 Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Shooting a RH gun Left-Handed for cross-eye dominance is fine. But you are truly left-handed, and you do most things with your left had, then operating the gun is easier and more natural if it's set up for your dominant hand. Quote
hognutz Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous. Quote
silverking00 Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 I can shoot both ways with a rifle but I must force my self to think through the whole shot right handed but left handed just feels right. I work all of the actions with my right hand and load with that hand too. I write with my right hand and thanks to a broken collar bone as a kid I can write with the left if I'm forced to. Quote
tyson129 Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous. That's some funny sheet Quote
ScaldedDog Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Been lurking for a while, just picked up a M2 today and looking forward to the dove hunt this weekend. Yes....another lefty, I did purchase the left handed model. My brother owns three Benelli's and has nothing but great things to say about them. I usually use a over and under dove hunting. I guess my son will use the Citori this weekend........ Quote
OhioM4 Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous. I happen to be ambipederous. Quote
