You have trained your whole life for right handed control of your weapons.
The only way I would change that at this stage in my life would be if my right hand were disabled (like it nearly was when my right thumb was almost amputated by that oven door in November).
It will take a whole lot less effort to use your dominant left eye and shoot right handed, than it would be to train your left hand/trigger finger to respond the way you want it to. That applies to a paper punching situation. In a self defense situation, you won't be worrying about an aperature, and you will naturally reach for a weapon with your right hand. At typical handgun combat ranges (7 yards or less) your shooting is going to be instinctive, there will be no warm up exercise! Do what comes naturally...
Just my $0.02 so spend it wisely. -John S
