    I'm kinda both. Shoot with the right. But my left eye is the dominant. For pistol it's fine as it gives me a longer eye-to-sights distance. For the rifle, hey I'm a real real home-grown genius who is able to shut one eye at a time... Not ideal.

    I'm in the process of mounting a picatinny rail on the left side of my SMLE sporter's receiver. Will be using an offset set of scope mounts on this (offset up/right). It will allow me to mount a scope without obstructing the open iron sights and which does not obstruct stripper clip loading. Incidentally, while setting it up I saw I might be able to look through the scope with my left and dominant eye if remove the cheek pad. Have to wait and see about that one.
