I almost signed up for the UK Territorial army, kinda like the US reserve.
I've done time in South Africa as a draftee and thought it might be cool to do somthing with all the spare time I had.
I had a look at the SA 80 and realised it wouldn't suit a lefty, asked the instructor what the options were for someone like me.
He told me that the rifle was made to be ambidex - you just swap the moving parts - but the UK Military never ordered them. Nice.
I never went back. I can't wink with my left eye and I'll be damned if I'm gonna either be shooting wide or wear a pirate eyepatch.
