Dibs Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 I have been looking for a little while for a left handed used Blaser without success so far. I went into my local dealers recently and he had a right hander there. Picking it up it felt good and seemed to mount comfortably and what he thought was a good fit. The right hand palm swell not being a problem. I have seen what looks like a nice F3 in right hand spec with an adjustable comb and wondered whether there is much cast on the F3, also whether the adjustable comb allows you to put some cast on. Think I know the answer - that is buy a new left hander but before I shell out wondered if these are pretty neutral anyway and the adj stock would allow me to adjust for some "cast on" for a lefty. Any help much appreciated - cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaserF3 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 (edited) I would ask Alan Rhone http://www.blaser-uk.com/ for his opinion. http://www.blaser.de/F3-Competition-Sporti...0.html?&L=1 The angle of the toe could cause a problem if you are well built.

MC Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Dibs, I have a RH F3 that you are welcome to try out. That is if you can manage the walk up the road. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bisondan Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 As you are probably aware being a left-handed shooter is a bit of a pain as most gun shops carry none or a very poor selection of left-handed guns and you can see why because whenever I shoot on clay grounds I hardly ever see any lefties, apart from myself, shooting. I picked up a left-handed F3 (standard) sporter from JF Neville in Derbyshire earlier last year and I was lucky in the fact that it fits me pretty well and my scores have started climbing since I started using it. I just have to have a couple of very small adjustments to it in the new year when I get a bit more money together.; My mate has an F3 right-handed and I couldn't shoot with it because the palm-swell is totally uncomfortable and don't forget the top-lever is the other way round. They are lovely guns, really easy to clean and handle so much better than my Beretta 687 Silver Pigeon, and I would seriously consider trying to get a true left-handed version then having and necessary adjustments made afterwards.
