What brand did it say the gun was? And usually you need to mod the bolt to lay on the left, you will probably have to shoot left handed.

is there a way to fix it so that it is right handed, and it is a tactical l96 awp

I know its a L96, but what company makes it(do you know?). The 'tactical awp' part is just an eye catcher. As far as the bolt goes I don't know if you could, depends on the mod. I'm 70% sure that you could re mod it to the right side but I'm not totally sure. Can you post the Amazon link?

i don't know the company is there a way you could find out

i bet you the picture was just flipped for some reason, i see that a lot in real gun advertizing, its wierd, ppl seen to like it when a gun is pointing one way, but they want to see the bolt and stuff so they just flip the image. i don't know why. any updates?

It says that the user supplying it is called BE

which I presume is BE- Both Elephant- which is not a great brand, but it is unlikely to be left handed unless specified, thats probably just from the picture they used.

I'm afraid I wouldn't have high expectations if it is manufactured by BE judging by their other guns on the market, but you never know, it might be decent.

after posting this i read more posts from l96sniper saying that he got it and it is left handed

looks like a nice l96 with 460fps

That's the problem, kkoerber, with buying cheap guns, you're inclined to buy them for the high fps, but high fps is no use when you can't hit a barn door from 25ft and the gun is liable to fail, jam or break.

Sounds to me like you would have been alot better off buying the Well L96.

Left hand bolt...Nuts! (picture must have been flipped)

I have a BE Mars13 (Mars1 or L96).
After 18 months of abuse the stock finally cracked making it a bit wobbly shooting from a bi-pod. It's crazy powerfull, very accurate (for an airsoft gun) and easily shoots out to +50m (I use CDs as targets, 5 shots inside a CD = a good group @ 50m/yards).
I know it is a cheap piece of crap, but it has given me more than a years worth of good shooting and other than the stock, it is in tiptop condition.
I've got a lump of beech wood in the garage and will be shaping a new stock soon and it'll be back in bussiness.
