RE: Biathlon North America left handed rifle

I'm left eye dominant and right handed. The biggest obsticle learning to
shoot righty is seeing the targets. It's a long explaination but in short,
correcting my right eye to see well enough to shoot gives me vertigo. If I
could get a left handed stock on a right handed action it might be okay.
Shooting a righty on the left is like wearing the right shoe on the left
foot. Thanks for the help having been there. I guess I just have yet to come
to the realization of the reality of plunking down the cash. Have you ever
seen the Izhmash left conversion?

Hello,

I'm one of the few lefties in the world also :) Left
eye dominant and left handed so I really wanted a left
handed rifle....my suggestion is that if you can learn
to shoot right, then do it, much easier and cheaper ;)
For actual leftie biathlon rifles I'm pretty sure
your only choice is an anschutz fortner. That is what
I ended up with....took for0ever to get as they are
not "stocked". Marc shepherd got mine in from
germany, about 3 or 4 months I think it took...
