Majority of the British army weapon systems have a right sided round ejection minus the pistol.
This meaning weapon systems are fired with a right hand on the pistol grip, right eye looking down the sight, right cheek on the cheek plate and a left handed support. You will learn to fire with your opposite hand if you are left handed
Hope this helps
