    My suggestion is that you learn to shoot right handed! I don't think it would be a problem with a rifle like it is with a shotgun?

    What sort of target shooting are you looking at trying. 10mtr paper or Field Target (FT)?

    City Air Weapons in Solihul has a left handed Walther LGR universal in its S/H section.
    Best regards

    If it's a real beginners rifle you're after the SMK SYNTARG is worth a look.

    New they're around £60. It's an ambi grip as well. I use one to shoot 10mtrs with the UBC. Works for me

    no need to be so touchy mate, he merely stated that shooting a rifle with a RH stock isn't going to affect you like shooting a RH stocked shotgun would if you were left handed.


    i have had to put up with RH rifles up until the last 12 months when i have started shopping around to find left handed rifles.


    my suggestion, if you cannot turn up a left handed rifle is to buy the rh rifle you want and get it re-stocked.
