Hey all,

I’m looking at the sbe3 compact but it only comes in right hand eject at the moment. I currently shoot a gas left hand eject. I once had a maxus that I shot left handed and had gases expel into my eyes on multiple occasions from the ejection port. Quickly sold it for a true lefty L4s.
Is this a thing with inertia? I understand most goes out the barrel but looking to see if anyone shoots a righty eject inertia gun left handed.
Thanks!
 
I shoot both inertia and gas guns left handed, right eject, I have never had a problem with either. I can’t honestly say I’ve ever shot a gas gun that I noticed any problem with expelled gases. I would assume it would be less with inertia, but you have just given me something to try out on my next range trip just in the pursuit of knowledge lol
 
I'm curious as well. I shoot left and my 3 right eject semi-auto centre fire have all given me gas and hot sprinkles in the face. I'm looking to try a lefty Franchi Affinity 3 or Winchester SX4.

It wasn’t noticeable shooting skeet but in the blind with the wind and larger shells is where I found it to be a problem. If you can face a strong wind with a few 3 inchers in each and let me know!
It wasn’t an ouch! More a damn my right eye is watering so bad I can’t see now lol
 
i shoot left handed and i get residue from gas and recoil operated guns it's not pleasant and could leave a person with i damage not worth the risk for me

Damn eh, maybe Il get lucky this shot show and Benelli will build a 3 inch with a 26 lefty again.. not holding my breath
 
As a fellow left handed shooter, I have never had an issue with this myself, but I am an upland hunter, not a waterfowler, so I do not shoot as much. I am lucky if I get into a covey where I get to shoot more than a couple at a time.
My RH Benelli Ethos is a 28 ga, as is my wife's Rem 1100 Sporting 28 (my 20 ga is in a LH Model 1100).
I am often on trails through the woods where the wind isn't as big a factor, but when I am out on the more open areas, I am not usually hunting in higher winds when the birds and big game are hunkered down anyway.

I wish Benelli or Beretta would make a LH 28 Ga!
