Left Hand T1x ETA?

The left hand 17 HMR has come and gone already. Rumour is that the lefty 22 LR isn't coming until the spring.

You aren't the only one that is impatient.
 
I saw them listed for sale on someones site a few weeks ago. They had a tikka sale, only the right handed stuff was on sale but they had the t1x lefty listed and I didn't say anything about preorder?
 
Thanks for the info! I thought a winter/spring delay was to be expected. I've been waiting on these for quite some time now...

Learn to shoot right handed like a man

Ok I will bite, All the south paws out there are more of a man than you will obviously ever be with a comment like that. I shot like a real man for 20 years, then had an unfortunate accident and had a concrete nail break off and stuck in my right eye, losing all my sharp vision. So I’ve spent the last 25 years re learning how to shoot the other hand. I must say it’s been fun. I may add that this happened when real men use to just squint and not wear safety glasses. I really want to be a real man but......

None of that rant was meant to upset any one, it’s all good, I’m lotflmao that people actually still think like this. And I bet Sudbury shooter wears safety glasses. I sure as heck know I do.
 
I'm a RIGHTY but don't mind shooting 'special' guns. Once I grind away the cheek piece and put one on the proper side it feels almost natural, the bolt on the wrong side is quite handy and means I don't need to change my grip to cycle it. I did the same on a JR Carbine, RIGHT eject, WRONG side bolt handle. Anytime I see a WRONG sided gun I snap it up and convert it for normal use. Short throw rimfires are great and you don't get the bolt in your face either. The T1X seems ripe for conversion, I'll make sure to get one when they get here.

Personally I prefer the ejection port on the opposite side of the gun from my face, but that's just me.

It's a different topic entirely. But I (right handed) too have been thinking it would be ideal to have a right hand bolt, left hand eject/port so my left eye can see into the port while I'm on the gun.
