Now.... what about left-handed shooters?
No problem here.
J Browning designed the M14 where as the operating rod is to make contact with the extracted shell and kick the brass out to the 2 o’clock position.
Fishing for the entire 20th century was a left handed sport…right handed people would cast right, change hand and crank right. We lefties never changed hands.
Not until in the 21st century did manufactures make reels where as the crank handle could mounted left or right so right handed people did not have to change hands.
