Okay, I'm a lefty in everthing buy writing. Those darn yardstick hurt when they smack you hand, let me tell you.
If it's a left handed handgun (and reasonably affordable, I'm not made of money) I'll buy it. So how many do I have? Two.
Yep, two. A lefthanded Randall 1911, and a Charter Arms Southpaw. Now the Randall is long gone and the reason is really simple. Left handed shooters have bought into the right handed shooters BS that we don't "need" dedicated lefthand guns. You see according to folks that have guns made just for them (righthanded folks) all we lefties need are a few "extra" controls. If lefties insisted on left handed guns we'd have them. But, when the lefty Randall came out, there weren't enough sales to keep the firm in business (heck, even the mags of the day kept saying it wasn't necessary, so why buy it, have you ever notice that most gun rag writers are righthanded?)
Now there is one type of firearm where the lefties have convinced the righties that it's made just for them, and southpaws have to adapt (great bit of misinformation there
). You see, single action revolvers (except for the very few righthanded versions) are actually made for lefthanded people. Yep, we've been pulling the wool over 83% of the worlds shooters eyes for well over one hundred years. If they ever catch on, Ruger is gonna have to redesign their single actions so righthanded folks don't have to change hands when they reload.
Oh, and right now it's 40 lefties to 24 righties. All your poll proves is that right handed folks are so prejudice they won't even open a thread about lefties, much less vote. Either that or the whole 83% righthanded vs 17% lefthanded stuff is BS.
