I have had one for several years with my hand loads it will shoot one inch groups at 1oo yards if I do my part. My youngest son took his first deer with it. I have taken a few with it myself. I had a similar problem about 10 years ago I went blind in my left eye due to Multiple Sclerosis I had just bought a left hand Savage 110 in 30-06. I bought a pellet rifle and taught myself to shoot right handed. Some of my vision came back in my left eye, but I still shoot right handed except when I want to surprise someone.

I have a 1894 in .44 mag with a red dot on it (old eyes), light, easy to carry,accurate and a ton of fun to shoot.

I’m sorry to hear about your vision problems, but you were certainly able to spot a great little carbine! I’m sure you will enjoy it.

Oh and Quinn that sticker in my opinion does nothing for the value of that gun without the box and paperwork, and even then only if it was in 100% condition a little Goo Be Gone will remove the sticker which is exactly what I would do. As to optics I have a BSA 3-9x40 red dot scope that works very well for me.
Be careful removing the sticker. A heat lamp or heat gun might help.
I bought a Marlin Golden 39M back in the 70’s and it had a “Genuine American Walnut” sticker on the bottom of the forearm. When I removed the sticker, it took a patch of the varnish with it.
I’ve since purchased a Marlin 99M1 and it has a sticker on it. I’m leaving it alone.
Back about 1984, I bought a 1894 .357 for my (ex)wife. It was a fine little carbine.
