Cant fire machine gun neither. They all right handed. ? K

When I was at school we had to do rifle training as part of the CCF and the officer in charge of the range insisted that I used the bolt action rifle right handed.  Having been brought up on a farm I had been rifle shooting from a very young age and was not a bad shot, But Left handed.   I challenged him to a duel, lying side by side resting the fore-end (no dirty jokes here Stubby!)on a sand bag.  I told him to imagine that we were at Rorke's Drift and there were thousands of Zulus coming at us.

So  let's see who can fire the most rounds / minute

Of course my left hand never was taken away from the trigger and my right hand operated the bolt, whereas his right hand had to leave the trigger to operate the bolt so I was nearly twice as fast as him!  It is still against regulations he insisted, which about sums up the army for me.
