The hip pad is designed for right handers. Can it be moved to the other side for left handers?

I looked at my unit and in order to swap sides it would require modifying the back brace and hip pad with slots for the straps. Also the hip pad is shaped differently. I wouldn't recommend this for a lefty. Sorry.

I've check the instructions. There's no mention that you can move to the left side.

Hi Scott; It could possibly be moved, but you'd have to reroute all the straps as well. The throttle handle would also then be the one that would do all the sweep action , which would make for interesting throttle movements. The handle angle on most larger cutters would also be odd. I'm also a southpaw, and don't find the factory setup too uncomfortable. Hop this helps; Dave

I have one and it did matter. There is a difference, though by looking at it you may not notice, but for me the side metal/plastic parts rubbed in the wrong area's on my right leg. The one I bought was for the left side. Unfortunately they are designed for one side not both. But you can always try it and if their is no pain... but it won't work 100% optimally.

Hi Tom. Yes .... It does accommodate both left or right handed shooters. I'm thinking about actually purchasing a second one for my wife to have on her side of the bed. I love it. Well worth the price.

Yes, you could however when I wear it I keep it straight up and down on my right side, I do not cant it. I would think in the small of your back you would want it at a slight angle. I have been very pleased wearing it on the right side of my hip. I often forget I have it on.

It can be worn and used on either side. It's a pouch and not like a holster.

Yes, holster is on the left and is easily accessible for Rt handed shooters. The problem is the size of the holster, as the prior two posters mentioned. It is just too small for a number of my pistols, with no chance of fitting anything with a light mounted on it.

I'm sure the handle can be put on the other side. That would work if you can make the adjustment of having it on the left side.

You would need to contact the manufacturer, but I don't believe it is available currently for left handed users.

It will work well with either hand. It is not conformed to either right nor left.

The pad will work equally well for a right hand or left hand shooter. Padding is adjustable and is the same on both sides. This makes it a little bulky on the the side opposite the cheek-weld but I have not noticed this when shooting.

I am right handed but i have used then left handed in some situations where my right hand was unavailable .... they are the best pair of shears i have ever owned..... I imagine that ease of deployment from the holster can be a factor but the holster allows you to configure to your preference of left hip or right hip placement. As a rightie I perfer the left hip with foward deployment allowing me to use my right hand. As a leftie I would recommend the opposite.

No - it's right handed only, unfortunately. That would be a great idea though.

not really i have moved it to my left side when i have a hammer on my right, but i still use my right hand to retrieve it. you would have to spin the drill around when you take it out and replace it with your left hand. hope this helps. Verdis

I am a lefty also. The pouch will accept the weapon the same either way. Hope this helps

There is a insert in it that I think could be reversed, I have not tried because I needed it right handed. Go to SenakyPeteholsters.com and I sure you will find the answer. I love my Sneaky Pete.
