Nah, passed during BMT, but I didn't get markmanship. In my case, with both eyes open, I would see a shadow image just to the right and slightly lower than...

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.

I did it the hard way, oh and I shot with both eyes open. Quite good results too.

Eiizumi SG

haha.

Lucky SAF use SAR 21, no need to close eyes one. Any eye also can.

Unless you cock eye.

fedor86 SG

that means you force your right eye to be so called "dominant" la?

airjordan3 SG

How about those right handed but cannot close the left eye. M16 can shoot with both eyes open ? Use eye patch ?

stellazio SG

same problem as me..

can train one..u everyday go practice closing..sooner or later get used to it liao.. Laughing

kentheman SG

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

tt3 SG

suck thunb n use right eye lor… use eye patch oso can… tape ur spec oso can…

airjordan3 SG

I used to fold cardboard paper and put it inbetween my eyes and spec during NCC days… but its quite troublesome eh…

Shotgun SG

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.

How can u be right handed but have a left master eye? I mean how come? Rolling Eyes

fudgester SG

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.

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.

SingaporeTyrannosaur SG

can be done, i am one too… and can shoot marksman…

ditzy SG

An anomaly? A freak? Laughing

airjordan3 SG

Where to get the eye patch ??

Ponders SG

To answer your question...

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.

fedor86 SG

Thanks your your answer.

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.

R3SsH|n SG

BrUtUs SG
