i noticed Buick at GXL (the youtube video.i didnt go) and i noticed hes right handed and he switched his view_model.

now i tried this method and i couldnt beleive it but i felt like there was more open ground to view.it was really weird but now i always have the view_model switched.

i know its the same as if you didnt switch the view_model but i just feel like i can see more than if i didnt switch the view_model.

Many right-handed Counter-Strike players flip their Viewmodels, simply because it has a different feel to it.

You're just half-blind on your left rather than your right with a flipped viewmodel. Turn them off if you actually want to see more.

The more interesting part of flipping the viewmodel is that it causes projectiles to fire from the left rather than the right. This was discussed somewhat back when the function was first available, but the general consensus was "it doesn't really matter 99% of the time and I don't see the point in relearning". Though it was fun to fire from either side at will for the few days we could do that.
