Western Airguns Western Sidewinder ?

[Bosshoss]

Looking at PCP guns and a Western Sidewinder looks interesting.
I'm left eye dominate and shoot rifles from the left shoulder and just wondering if anyone has shot from the left shoulder with this gun.
Looks like the rotating magazine might be a issue while shooting.
Thanks for any input.

I would have thought not, but you should check with @Shortcut as he just bought one for left handed shooting. Here is where he posted on it: https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/new-gun-day.1307822/#post-1690877

I wold think that in first instance your cheek, and later on your tongue, would be trapped by the rotary magazine.

I have no problem whatsoever, but I would suggest if at all possible to try one prior to purchasing. I really have no problem adjusting and have room behind the magazine for my cheekrest. I also in the past learned to adjust to the Maverick and Impact so it probably is an individual thing. I have learned to not say no problem because we all have our own comforts. I will most likely make a left handed cheek rest but for me it is quite comfortable.

Thanks for reply's. I thought I might be able to make a left handed cheek piece also.
I don't know of any airgun shops around me let alone one that would have one of these in stock.
I'm in southern Indiana between Louisville KY and Cincinnati OH BTW.

I just tested one and it looks fine but if you have a beard I would be careful as I have got an unpleasant tug on my beard hair once. I would say come and test one but im in Bend Oregon. Im taking a .22 cal for myself but the .30 would kill a coyote.
