Do post the results of your first shoot with your new rifle -- I would be most interested to hear how it goes.

ur so lucky finding a LH Rifle presume its a RH action in a LH stock? as dont think they made LH action P14? beware loading you keep it pointing level & to your target. have seen RCOs pull LH up for that as its difficult to do. good luck with it.

I have a RH action LH stocked P14 in the club too :-) Intend to thread the bolt handle & fit a bolt arm extension to make it easier to use LH, if it works ok will send / post some pics. did it with a 22 & its easy to use.
