Title: LH turkey guns
Post by: FlCracker13 on December 24, 2021, 12:10:49 PM
Any suggestions on a LH 20ga for turkeys. Yes I have several RH ones my daughter can use but I would like one that fits her better. Thanks

Few Autos out but very few.   Look into a O/U.

I feel the same way as I am a fellow southpaw, I would go with a single shot,or over/under like was already suggested or look for a LH 870. Happy Holidays!

I have a Winchester sx3, safety is easily reserved to lefthand and no problem with shells ejecting hitting me. Very soft shooting  gun.

My girls all started with a single shot 410. If they wanted to go bigger we then moved to a 20ga single shot or an Ithaca 37 pump.
If a semi auto is required all I can think of are Benelli, and Beretta in a 20ga. I believe those brands plus Remington, and Tristar if you wanted to go to 12ga.

I shot left handed. My main shotgun is a Browning Silver 12ga and never had a problem with empties or gases in my face. I bought a SX4 20ga last year and have not had any problems. My left handed son has been shooting his SX3 for several years with no problems. I think your daughter would be fine with most any semiautomatic.
I don't switch the safety to left hand either. I've learned how to reach around as I'm pulling the gun up to shoot. What bothers me is that if the safe is switched around and a righty borrows  the gun, they will probably get mixed up and not have the gun on safe. And I can still be safe with a borrowed gun.

Winchester just announced a left handed version of the SX4.
