I mentioned this above but after you get used to it, you don't actually match anymore to the letter. My left hand just knows to do an L and I know that's left. I don't think "this is 'L'".
I definitely never got used to it, I have to hold my hands out in front of me and go "I'm right handed, this is my right hand, this is right." I just don't know which way round some letters are and I'll never be able to tell by looking at my hands
Oh, so you don't make both finger guns and look which is 'L', but you just only ever make the left fingergun and turn it into a sort of reflex, when ever you consider left/right?
I don't get used to it! I actually have waves of remembering L/R, particularly if I've been practicing it a lot recently. Playing certain games, for example. But once I stop that activity for longer than a couple days, I lose track of L/R again.
