FX Left handed owners opinions wanted...

So it sounds like you folks were either ok or adapted your style to shoot; do you think the cheek riser would help?

Harry,

Thanks for the input. Do you think the K & L is a better design than the Saber Tactical cheek riser?



There is a kit to change the cocking lever to the other side, https://spaweapons.com/collections/saber-tactical-accessories/products/fx-impact-ambidextrious-cocker

but I was thinking of doing the pump action instead to enable better rapid fire especially since so many of you did not raise any issues of the cocking & the pump action only works with the stock cocking on the right, https://spaweapons.com/collections/saber-tactical-accessories/products/saber-tactical-fx-impact-pump-action-pre-order-for-xmas-delivery

I too shoot an FX Impact from the dark side. Couple comments.

• High capacity mags bother me, others don’t seem to have an issue.
• Find yourself a good ambidextrous cheek piece, Custom Carbon Designs make excellent products.
• I have been using Original FX mags (11 shot in 0.22 cal) that are designed for FX Royal etc. These load from the left and eliminate mag interference and allow excellent cheek weld.
• Eagle vision has a new mag that works with the Impact and loads from the left - haven’t tried yet, but looks promising.
• I prefer cocking lever on the right side. Allows me to cycle shots without removing trigger finger.

Would be awesome if FX, Side Shot, or Saber Tactical decided to make high capacity mag that loaded from the left. Would be super to easy for them to make.

Thanks John!

Can you include the correct link of the magazines you have found that load on the left? It is great to hear that not many seem to have issues as a lefty and that the cheek riser is a great help for some. Those great comments/feedback make me feel more at ease buying the Impact MK2

John,

I sent an an email to Eagle Vision and I was amazed that they replied so quickly, The good news is that they said they will be making magazines for all of the caliper .25 30 and .357 one at a time that will be left handed loading magazines. It might take them a while 6 months based on his reply,



Yes correct it take us over 6 month as we have now over 23 new product in the line

This was my previous email to them,

Thanks! So just to make sure I understand, you will be making them all eventually and those will be left handed loading magazines? There are many left handed shooters that would love to purchase them in all of the calipers.





Thanks! I think there is a good market for left handed loading Impact magazines and here in the US more of us use the .25, .30 and now that FX is introducing the .357 calibers now. Nobody makes a left handed loading magazine for the FX.

Links to left loading mags for the Impact are given below. Correction to my post above - the FX standard mag holds 12 rounds in 0.22 cal. The Eagle Vision mag holds 18.
