In that last picture, looks like someone opened it up by hogging away with an air grinder!

For a right handed shooter, shooting with their left eye dominant.

Well, that is absolutely the only magazine rifle I've ever seen with a cross-over stock....I'm pretty sure its the only rifle, period, that I've seen with one. I'm cross-dominant so, I normally check out any guns stocked as such, just for my own curiosity. I've never shot any of the shotguns I've observed over the years but handling and shouldering them, the concept seems to work- I don't have to close my off-hand eye.
Interesting between these two Jeffreys, one is on a mag action and the other (this one) on a standard. As mentioned, the grinding on the bottom of the standard looks as if some backyard/jackleg gunsmith got his hands on it. Totally out of step with the typical Mauser/Brit workmanship.

A10ACN,
This is a really neat crossover rifle:

Notice how the top tang is contoured to match the curve of the stock. This must have been filed out like this from the start I would think. The cranked out lever actually looks better on this gun to me than it does on a standard stock.
