    Been Looking for a lefthanded shotgun and struggling to find one but I've found a nice right-handed silma. Is it much of an issue to get the cast changed from right to left. A couple of people have said it's no problem but then a few have warned me against it? If I get it done will I have issues down the line. Thanks

    I think with semi autos there’s chimes in it to make them suite for left handed people. I have a browning cynegy black ice that had a left handed comb that’s adjustable that comes with it. If u want pat Sludds could make a stock to suite you or maybe cast the stock for u if u prefer. It is hard here in Ireland I think to get left handed guns to suite people bcos of resale and taking a trade in after in my opinion.

    My son is left handed and left master eye. He had his right handed Lanber shotgun fitted with an adjustable comb riser by Pat Sludds and there is enough lateral adjustment for him to shoot successfully with it. This could work for you too and it carries the benefit that the comb can be adjusted back to allow right handed shooting.

    If I were you I would go see Pat Sludds.

    Are you looking for a side/side, under/over or semi-automatic?
