Would it be dangerous/difficult to shoot a R/H flintlock, left handed.....if you get my drift?

I've shot right handed flinters all my life and never had an issue with the lock placement, sighting is just the same just make sure that the rifle doesn't have a high roll over comb as that can be uncomfortable to a left hander and difficult to get a good cheek weld with.

In fact I notice the blow back from right handed percussion more than I ever do with flinters, not a problem but I do notice it occasionally with the caplocks never with a flintlock.
