I shoot left handed, but I'm mostly ambidextrous.

I shoot left handed solely so I can get all my squadmates to cuss under their breath at me as I go against the flow on stage walkthroughs.

Forget 'prouction only' or 'wheelgun only' matches. I want a southpaws only match. Every stage has the starting point on the right rear corner of the stage... and righties are welcome - we just trample and cuss them during walkthrough.
The truth is that there is no choice between the two. You line the sights up in the A-zone and let it fly at the absolute soonest moment that you see what your experience tells you will put the hole where you're aiming it using the amount of trigger control you need to keep the gun lined up in that spot. There is no concern about accuracy or speed - either one is an illusion from behind the gun. There's "where do I want to hit" and "is the gun lined up there or not"... followed up with "did the sights lift from where I wanted to hit". To assign an "either/or" to the equation is to deny the fact that the gun can be shot ridiculously fast while shooting all As - but it won't be done while you're determined that one must be sacrificed for the other - and it also has the amusing side effect of pressuring the shooter to ignore "the shooting" in the name of "the speed" - XRe
