The lever moves to the right. The trigger are made for a right handed shooter. And from the photos I can't see where the front trigger is hinged? Only lefty portion of this rifle looks like the butt stock.

Rusty's good eye has caught the essentials. This is a standard double rifle with a cheekpiece and, presumably, cast-on for a lefty.

That's good. As a lefty I shoot two right-handed double rifles. The only thing you might do with this Krieghof is to have the triggers heated and turned slightly to face your left trigger finger.

Regards
