Capt. James H. Callahan Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Sitting here watching The Rifleman episode Wyoming Story. There's a scene in a saloon where he shoots the points off a deer head. LEFT HANDED. In the opening he shoots right handed (I looked at it on YouTube). I never noticed him shooting lefty. Did he shoot either way and I just now noticed it? JHC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irish Pat Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Yes he also playing with the Boston Celtics and Dodgers. He was 6’6” and outstanding athlete. His brother was Mike Conners of “Tightrope”. Chuck was ambidextrous, not amphibious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I’ve noticed the same thing about Clint Eastwood. Sometimes he’s right-handed, other times a lefty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got my curiosity up and been looking, I don't find where he was related to Mike Connors. Mike's real name was Krekor Ohanian!

Pat Riot Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I tried to spin my Win. 94 Carbine once years ago. I made it one time with two fingers in the lever loop. Decided right then and there I was pushing my luck and that if anyone ever asked if I ever spun a lever gun I could say “Yes” without further elaboration. I tried it because I saw a clip of Chuck Conners doing it. Yes, I was old enough to know better. No, I haven’t tried since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assassin Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Ambidextrous actors save directors from moving cameras and sets. It's a big time saver when trying to get the desired film shot. Watch Clint Eastwood throw his badge at the end of Dirty Harry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
