Ladies and Gentlemen,

Right handed but left eye dominant? Check this out (pay close attention to the last two pictures).

Shotgun

I know it's heresy. But for God's sake how about closing your left eye!?

I get dizzy just looking at that Rube Goldberg looking hunk of bent wood. I'd go cross-eyed just trying to mount the thing.

But the rest of it sure looks nice. And what a price--$5K for a best quality English sidelock gun!

Probably cost $20K more though to straighten the tangs and locks and restock it.

Been there-done that, as I have been blind in my right eye for 55 years. The problem I had was, that I get a bloody nose easily & with this crooked stock your nose is laid over the comb.

It was a lot simpler to just learn to shoot left-handed.

The late John Amber had a rifle made up with a stock that allowed him to use his left eye when he started to lose vision in his right one - he wrote about in "The Gun Digest review of Custom Guns" many years ago (I think it was shortly before he left us) and I have the article somewhere in case anyone is interested.

How about this one...

thanks for posting the pictures, fun to see such gun.
I nothing strange about it, the gun is made for soeone who is either blind or dominant left eye. I guess of the adjustable comb that he have been ganing/loosing weight since the weight effects you neck and face dimentions. My guess it and old mans gun.

I have seen quite a few with ths type of stock, and shoot a few since I'm ambidextrous. It will cost a few cents and a bit more to get it restocked.

heck, if i wanted a best shotgun, I think i could manage to bring it back straight...
