Same same, qualification waaay weak on weak hand shooting, I do it on my own. And carry plus a BUG off duty, too. I am very weird according to my co-workers.

I do, and I also practice (with snap caps) reloading with my weak hand ONLY.
Also clearing a failure with one hand.
From a friend that has been in harms way I learned one important fact. When you get into a situation where instincts take over and time is limited, your training will take over, so practice with what you carry, how you carry and practice every possible way.

Just had carpal tunnel surgery on the right last Friday. I have shot with my left before, but for the next few weeks the left is all I got. My son and shooting partner is looking forward to out scoring ol dad, we will see about that.
