https://www.gunsinternational.com/g...n-guns/bsw-drilling.cfm?gun_id=103298182

I noticed this one for-sale & you just don't see that many Greener safety's on the left. I'll try to lift some fotos.

BTW, BSW was one of the names Simmons" took on" in their unsuccessful attempts to save the company from NAZI take over. Simmons guns are fine quality guns.

Indeed Ford, Berlin Suhler Waffen- und Fahrzeugwerke was the Nationalized version of the Jewish Simson concern, which made excellent weapons.

If you're left-handed and looking for a drilling, you pretty much have to take what you can get, when it comes up. There just are not that many out there set up for lefties. The big drawback is the cheekpiece, nearly universal on drillings. The Greener safety is also pretty much universal, at least in postwar drillings. As a lefthander I bought the first left-handed drilling I came across, right-handed Greener safety notwithstanding. It works fine - I got the safety off in plenty of time to drop my moose last year. Frankly, I think a right-handed Greener safety (on the left cheek of the stock) is easier for a left-handed to operate. That's the side of the gun your trigger hand is on.
