Just watched Selleck in Monte Walsh; pretty fair bittersweet western. Happened to notice a couple gun related things.
Shorty's character, Walsh's sometime friend, draws a bead on him with a SAA, plainly holding the revolver right handed, but using his left eye to sight. His character also uses an 1887 lever shotgun, with a lot of padding on the buttstock.
For anyone who has read the book, did the author make an issue of Shorty's crossed dominance affecting his shooting ability, including his use of a shotgun, rather than a rifle?
Thoughts?
