Must be a different gun. Use an SA-80 left-handed and the shell will be ejected pretty much straight up your nose.



The ejection ports behind that green dust cover, and as you can see, there's no way in hell you could put it on the other side without a machine shop handy.

Actually, I was just sitting here giggling at the thought of not putting the port on the other side and using it lefty anyway.


hehehehe

9mm is a relatively light weight, small diameter round with high velocity. In theory that helps it penetrate better (which is kind of dumb, because it's still just a pistol) but doesn't have quite the same momentum that a .45 would, which is why the 9mm has basically been abandoned by most US police forces in favor of the .40 caliber.

I wish I could have been first to answer, because I find it hilarious, but oh well.

Also, I'm fairly positive the SA-80 (L85A2, at least) can be reassembled to eject on the left side of the gun, but you'd have to be a level 3 gunsmith to do it without fucking the whole thing up.

Nodaisho:
Well... That blows. I suppose you could probably rig something up to deflect the brass down, but that would not be something you would want to be stuck doing in the middle of a firefight.

Khar's list was missing something. Sunscreen. Lots of sunscreen.

I know there are some bullpups that you can modify when disassembling, but for some reason, none of them have figured out a way to flip the ejection around. If you made it eject up and to the side, you could probably have a switch that moved a metal piece to the side. The FN2000 seems to have it best so far though, frontward ejection with enough force to throw out six spent cases as well as the one just fired. Downward works too, but then you can't put the magazine there, at least not that I can think of.

Melodic:
The point being that it's too fucking difficult to make a gun for lefties when the ejection port is just so HANDY on the right, at least for the average gun manufacturer.

Why isn't there an anti-zombie laser yet?
