Hi all,
I am left handed and I currently have a Mossberg 590A1 18" (with Surefire fore-end) shotgun due to the ambidextrous safety and easy to reach carrier release button. But I find this gun to be quite heavy and the action rattles more than I expected.
So I would like to buy an 870, but would like to find out if there are any mods suggested to make it more friendly for a left handed shooter.
- Is the carrier release location an issue for lefty's?
- Can the cross-bolt safety be reversed?
I think these were the two features that drew me towards the 590A1 over an 870.
Or are there techniques such that these aren't drawbacks for lefties?
I do want ghost ring sights and a possible picatinny rail for an Aimpoint T-1, but I'd like to keep the weight down.
Thanks in advance for your input!
