    Shooting from the left shoulder was a perfectly acceptable alternative for those cack-handed shooters. Alas, not such a bag of fun with the L85 rifle!

    Not much fun with an SLR, either.

    Saw one clip on youtube, where a bloke was using a 7.62 x 39 Bren, from the left shoulder - would have thought it was awkward to use the sights
