  1. I'm a lefty also, but I actually found most off the peg Beretta 686/687's fit me perfectly well, in fact just as a well as a proper left handed model I think. Same goes for Miroku, Browning (apart from a Browning Medalist I shot, the comb ruined my cheek after a round of clays, shame, as I shot well with it!), Lanber and Laurona. Couldn't hit a barn door with a right hand Bettinsoli I tried, but it was comfy at least! My point being, for a first gun, don't rule out a second hand right hander at the right price. If it were a rifle sure, case ejection, bolt operation; all better off being correctly handed, But on a shotgun, my own experience seems to be that a good proportion of manufacturers guns would fit me well enough off the peg no matter what the handedness. I'd only ever shot R/H guns for about a year after starting with clays. I tried my first lefty gun and I expected some sort of supreme comfort, picking up a few extra birds I'd have ordinarily missed and just getting that 'at home' feeling with the gun. But it never happened! Some people I'm sure will be different, but for me as a lefty, R/H shotguns seem fine and are easier to move on if you want to.
  2. Evening all. I'm a long time lurker of the forums, but have never come up with anything to post that the search box hasn't answered! Until now... I've recently bought an RWS/Roessler Titan 3 chambered in 22-250. I must say I love the gun, it's my first centre fire rifle but I can't imagine I'd have got a rifle that more suited me on the second hand market. Hardly used, chambered in my preferred caliber (.222 or .223 being the other choices considered), with a factory option trigger and left handed. Now although I rate the gun, the UK gun buying market doesn't seem to, i.e I can't seem to find who in the UK distributes their guns and spares. I understand it used to be RUAG, but so far as I can tell, not anymore. Does anybody have an RWS/Reossler Titan on here that can point me in the right direction? The rifle is fine, doesn't need any parts, but it's nice to know just in case, and I was going to order a second magazine.
