How much of a dork would I look.

Using an L85 left handed...

I really love the G&G L85, love the feel of it, the unique look of it, the solid rep is has in reviews and the standard M4 hopup chamber it will take. (allowing me to port my sweet Rhop setup.)

Sadly I am left handed. I know this is not a serious issue in Airsoft, but aesthetically how much ribbing would I likely get?

BioRage · March 18th, 2014, 13:48

I don't see a problem.

Who gives a fuck anyways.

Lol, use it whatever way you want. Its just an airsoft gun.

Just make sure to disable your blowback.

I own the L85, absolutely love it, but it often needs a bit of tech work out of the box. The guns biggest issue is that it usually always has a fucked up semi auto function due to the design of the gearbox. I have yet to do the fix, but there is plenty of vids and tutorials online to help you along.

Disabling the blowback is huge, too. I found that my battery drained way too fast with it engaged.

none.

you'll have to practice reloading... the mag release is on the left side only

lurkingknight · March 18th, 2014, 14:18

maybe you'll get ribbed from uptight milsim purdes. Don't let them dictate how you should have fun.

btw, you can take that r-hopped barrel and shaved bucking and put it into any other hop up unit... unless you modified the arm for the mnub. Nothing is done to a hopup chamber to install the r-hop.

Maybe you might get snide comment from the odd too serious to be taken seriously airsofter, but I have been in airsoft in for a year and a half, and it's a pretty easy going community from what I have experienced.

pointing and laughing... look at the brass chewer .. shooting his L85A2 FROM THE WRONG SHOULDER!! what a goof! Doh.. I guess I'm a milsim Prude ..

but also easily ignored...

I doubt anyone would actually notice..

20% of the Population is left handed, all of them shoot.
It's like they are pissed off about something.
