What do you do if you are left handed?

In my case (fortunately only on the range and not for real), you take your ear-plug case and use a blousing band to attach it just behind the ejection port. Once of the drill sergeants took pity and showed me this after a small, but consistent percentage of casings were ejected slightly backwards and would ding me in the neck.

His rifle casing ejected forwards about ten yards and about ten feet maximum height. Very consistent and what a distraction! Also, his weapon did not have an automatic position. That thought has stuck with me till this day. He let me fire his AR-15 and I did not like the "feature" described above.
