I always go to the manufacturers site to check out the guns I may purchase but thats me. You didn't realize you weren't buying a left handed gun so in my opinion you are at fault as well. I'm not sayingthis to be mean so please don't take it that way. I think you should know what your buying. They offered you a refund, you say your considering keeping it, it's irrelevant which side the bolts on. Your really out a couple of phone calls. Enjoy your gun, punch some hole in some paper,and don't sweat the small stuff
