I don't own any long guns (yet) but with my handgun, I have practiced (granted, only one time) doing strong hand only/weak hand only target shooting, just to see how it felt.
I am looking at the targets I used, and at seven yards with strong hand only, I have about a three inch grouping. At the same distance with weak hand only, the group expands a bit to around four inches. Not great, but not too bad for the first time trying it.
I do think it is important to be able to shoot one handed, both sides in case of injury or barricades, and will continue to practice it.
My only issue is that I have a Makarov and they are designed with the mag release on the heel of the gun. I have only figured out one way to drop it without using my left hand, which is to catch it on the edge of a table or a corner of something. But what if there isn't a corner around?? Anyone? Thanks.
