When you refer to your new drilling as a "lefty" gun, are you referring to the stock alone, or does the action lever also operate in the opposite direction?
Because of a problem with the sight in my right eye, I have been forced to switch shoulders, and operating the action lever on my right handed double rifles and drillings is really awkward for me.
It is not a "true" left-handed gun in the sense of the toplever, safety and triggers being the reverse of normal. On my gun, the only left-handed part - and it's an important one - is the placement of the cheekpiece on the right-hand side of the stock, where my left cheek rests on it. The triggers and toplever are as any other drilling based on an A&D action would be. Front trigger - right barrel. Toplever goes to the right. All my doubles are set up that way and that's really all I've ever known, so I don't really have any difficulty with that.
Like most recent German drillings the safety is a Greener-type, mounted in the left cheek of the stock. It's a bit awkward for me.
