With regards to shooting..
What will the SAF do to people who are roght handed but have a left master eye?
Do they ask them to shoot with the left hand?
Please shed some light, as I am a right handed and have a left master eye. -

haha.
Lucky SAF use SAR 21, no need to close eyes one. Any eye also can.
Unless you cock eye. -
that means you force your right eye to be so called "dominant" la?
-
How about those right handed but cannot close the left eye. M16 can shoot with both eyes open ? Use eye patch ?
-
same problem as me..
can train one..u everyday go practice closing..sooner or later get used to it liao..
-
wat my platoon do is tt either use black tape to tape up the problem eye, or use eye-patch.. tt's wat the IMT instructor tell us to do
-
suck thunb n use right eye lor... use eye patch oso can... tape ur spec oso can...
-
I used to fold cardboard paper and put it inbetween my eyes and spec during NCC days... but its quite troublesome eh...
-
I believe they got categorise this.
Cat A shooter are right hand right master eye.
Cat B, left hand left master eye.
Cat C, Left hand Right master eye.
Cat D, Right hand left master eye.
For cat C and D shooters, (im not sure are they ONE class or 2 class). If u are LEFT MASTER EYE and RIGHT HAND. Train by covering with ur LEFT EYE with eye patch. THEN, after a while, LEARN to close ur LEFT EYE. -

It IS possible. Just because you're right-handed doesn't always make you instantly right-eyed and right-legged. Heck, there are right-handed footballers who are left-legged maestros. If you want to know, I am another case of right master hand, left master eye.Originally posted by gnoik:How can u be right handed but have a left master eye? I mean how come?
There is only one solution to this: force yourself to use the right eye. Use an eye-patch to cover your left master eye if you have to. -
can be done, i am one too... and can shoot marksman...

it really doesn't matter what master hand/eye you have.
all you do is use your trigger finger to pull the trigger and the rifle shoots.
hope i answered yoru questions in the most objective manner. -

Maybe I should change my question to with regards to shooting ACCURATELY. haha
Wear eye patch ah? Look like pirate sia lol. I'm gonna train to use my right eye then. -
wait...you mean eyes got master and not-master de mehz?
how to test which one is master eye? -
u are definitely not the first so dun worry... jz use the above methods...
-
As for shooting accurately...
if you are M16 user, i would say you are more disadvantaged but don't worry. wear and EYE PATCH. please don't use what cardboard or blacktape as what the IMT uncles said. My OC scolded them for making the recruits look like goondoos.
But if sar21 user... just carry on as per normal
learn to shoot with both eyes open, though takes slightly longer to obtain sight picture... with practice you can get it fast.
if you find it difficult, shoot with left eye closed but don't shut it too tight or your eyelid muscle tired easily. -
Extend your arm. With both eyes open, stick up your thumb and let it cover a distant object. Close your left eye.Originally posted by R3SsH|n:wait...you mean eyes got master and not-master de mehz?

If the thumb is still over that distant object, that means you have a right master eye. If the thumb jumps off to one side, that means you have a left master eye.

No big deal. Took me a while to get used to it, but I got my markmanship quals with the M16 firing with both eyes open, and during firefights in BTEC (yes, I'm THAT old), being able to fire with both eyes open proved to be a slight advantage because I had a wider field of view.
