I was just talking to the ol man and found out that he lost most of his sight in his right eye so he has to convert to left handed shooting... I can't even imagine how much of a pita that will be for him but i'd like to help him out. He is looking for a left handed or ambidextrous muzzle loader, something new and not too expensive.

I saw some decent looking Tc loaders for $400 but none of them had left handed stocks... would the traditional stock be good for both right and left handed shooters?

$300-500 is the budget, what can he get?


many thanks
 
TC, and Lyman both make lefties. a lot of people like both brands... im not one of them they feel to chintsy to me, i like buying kits and building my own. but finding a lefty in one of those is damn near impossable.
 
My TC Triumph is fully ambidextrous, and retails for $499 in the latest Cabelas Canada catalog. The Traditions Pursuit would work, just the push button safety on the trigger guard would be backwards. They start around $300 . My hunting buddy is a lefty as well, and is using a TC Omega with no problems, I think they start at about $325.
 
The last four years I've had to shoot left handed due to a disability developed in my right arm. I'm almost able to switch back now, but I need more range of motion. But that's coming. It sure gave me insight on what a gong show it is for lefties. No matter what anyone tells you, Winchester lever actions to NOT eject straight out the top. I've caught lots of .30-30 case mouths right between the horns. Two years ago at the Senlac Gun Show, I picked up a lefty bolt, and it was like WOW! if I was a lefty, I wouldn't put with having the bolt on the wrong side.

The easy part was training the motor skills to co-operate. The hard part was the dominant eye wasn't the one doing the looking. That took about a year and a half to get down pat.
