This intro is overdue and I must apologise for that, but it is all your combined faults for making your posts far too interesting. This has diverted my intentions away from doing it earlier.

I used to shoot Light Sporting Rifle and I am just returning to pistol shooting after a few years away. I have also set myself the task of changing from a LH to RH stance due to arthritis setting in prematurely due to an earlier motorcycle accident.
I am not finding that too easy, but it makes sense as my dominent eye is the right one.

Currently owning and shooting
Pistols...Steyr LP10E, Feinwerkbau Model 80 and Model 65.
Rifles....Steyr LG110, Webley Scott Venom sidewinder, FWB 300S

Hi mate and welcome. I have to be very choosy about grips for my pistols due to a knackered wrist from bikes. My Gamo has endured much Dremel work to adapt to it's creaky owner!
I did think about trying left hand and may get an ambidextrous grip next. Let us know how you get on with the switch, be very interested in how you adapt.
Regards, Jon.  :D

Hello,

And welcome to the forum.

One of our club members shoots pistol right handed, and rifle left.

I suppose it is good that we are able go adapt.

Kind regards,

I sometimes have to shoot pistol with my left hand when the nerve and joint problems in my right arm and wrist play up. After a few hours I can get reasonable scores and it doesnt feel that weird. Anyway, better that then no shooting at all!

This is why I much prefer ambi grips.
