    Question Question for left handed K-31 shooters

    Does anyone make an adapter so that I could shoot my K31icon left handed? I remember seeing such an item several years ago but the price was way out of my budget. Is anyone making one now or is there any instructions on how to make one? Thanks.

Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle.

    The left hand op rod / cocking handle is made by Burgin who is a gunsmith in Switzerlandicon. It's expensive.

    I shoot my K31icon left handed in both rapid fire and slow fire positions by just slightly rolling the rifle to the left and reaching over the top. If done correctly, you don't have to unshoulder the rifle. You must rearrange the sling attachmet so you can use it left handed.

    Your description is exactly how I am currently shooting my K31icon. I just wondered if there was an adapter that would let me run the bolt like I would do if I was shooting right handed. Thanks.
