Bane said:I'm left handed and shoot left handed generally (With the C-7 this gives you the odd shell hitting your helmet and you get the acidic smoke from the rounds in your eyes every now and again) I used to do all my drill right handed and I can shoot pretty well right handed too. Try learning both and see which works better, I found being able to shoot decently both ways was really handy in CQB stuff, it also allows you to use certain types of cover better at times.
If you are really brave you could watch the movie Fire Birds and do what Nick Cage does in that movie to fix your problem...but I'd rather cut out one eye than watch that aweful thing again.
Here's the relevant clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tya5CObdJzc
I'm in the same boat too. But was lucky enough to identify the issue (not really an issue) early on. My grandpa taught me to shoot both eyes open at an early age, and once I knew where my difficulties were coming from, I focused - pun intended - on separating my focus. Making a conscious effort to pick a target with my left eye, then force myself to 'switch' to my right eye through the scope was all it took. Well, that and a few boxes of .22LR plunked into the woodpile out back. Still works for me though.
