I'm interested in picking up a semi-auto for home defense/duck hunting and a little later down a line, an over/under for clay shooting. My questions is, I'm left handed. How big of a deal is that with semi-autos and over/unders?
For the semi-auto, I'm considering a Benelli SBE II or M2, Franchi I-12, Beretta A391 or Winchester SX3. The Benelli comes in a left handed version, but how ambidextrous are the others?
For the O/U, I'm looking into a Citori Trap XT, 686 White Onyx, or Winchester Select. Only the Citori comes in a Left handed Version. What chamber should I be looking at 2 3/4 or 3? Also, for the o/u, if I wanted it to be passed down do my children (don't have any yet) they may not be left handed. How ambidextrous are the o/u guns?
Have any left handed shooters used the right handed guns I mention? Whats the fit/comfort level?
Secondly, for barrel length, on the semi auto, I'm leaning towards 24" or 26" and for the o/u, 28" or 30". Opinions on those lengths given their uses?
Thanks in advance.
