Good sensible post RR. Too add to your post, porting also reduces recoil, and I am sure the last thing Obama would want is to be seen favoring his shooting shoulder when he says he shoots guns all the time.
maybe if it was purple gay smoke bomb coming from the end of his barrel might raise some suspicion from yah, note sticking out at the end there looks like one is stuck down in there and showing a little at the end
Obviously Obama is not shooting skeet.Because Skeet shooting involves an upward angle.The skeet are flung upward. How dumb does this White House think americans are. Plus it has been confirmed that Obama played golf earlier in the day. And that the camera used {DSLR} for that photo has a date and TIME mark. Breitbart reporting that with further checking via the Photo's metadata page to get a screenshot ,that their was in fact a TIME to go along with the date { August 4,2012 } a Time of 7:19 PM {PST} which would mean 10:19 Eastern time where Camp David is located.
Actually this is all such a piece of cake.Just go back to the day in question August 4 2012 where Obama also played a round of golf and check out his haircut.Is his hair about the same length and cut. Plus the backcrop of trees looks like it could have been professionally spliced.Meaning Obama probably did shoot the over/under it's just a question of when.
If he was shooting skeet, what was he shooting at there? Skeet is usually thrown high in the air isn't it?
An inexperience shooter might not get the shot off until the pigeon has fallen and almost hit the ground, heck it might have already hit the ground before he got the shot off. Just saying.
You've never even held a shotgun let alone fire one have you? - - - Updated - - - Amazing how little the foam at mouth gun nuts don't know about actually firing guns!
Maybe he's using a black power percussion cap shotgun? There's a big difference between target shooting in preparation of killing defenseless little animals and combat shooting in preparation for targets that shoot back.
I have competed at American skeet for many years. In a typical year I would shoot 12,000 tp 13,000 shells. What struck me about the picture (other than the unlikely smoke) was that apparently there wasn't anyone present to coach him on stance and gun mount. He wouldn't hit many the way he is standing and mounting the gun. But then, perhaps he is too smart to take any coaching or advice.
The man he accidently hit with a few birdshot pellets, did a helluva lot better than did the young lady who went driving with Ted "The Lifeguard" Kennedy, who ABANDONED HER, to SLOWLY DROWN ALONE....
So King Obama staged a phony photo-op to prove that he's really all for gun freedoms for himself and his pals. So what if he actually shot the thing? The reality is that he telegraphed his anti-gun position in the third presidential debate, the one he almost won by looking like the Chicago thug gangster he is. His move, and the coordinate DemocRAT moves to ban guns and ammo and magazines and otherwise infringe on the Americans exercise of their basic human right to defend themselves against tyrants such as himself was not a reaction to a random shooting by a psychotic who would have been institutionalized but for RAT policies, but it was in fact a planned evolution awaiting the inevitable consequence of RAT unconstitutional policies making selected areas advertised Free Kill (aka Gun Free) zones. But the blowback on King Obama's anti-gun policies was a bit too much for his ego, so he made up some photos of the King practicing shooting Bushes with an imported shotgun. Did the Mayor capitalize "Bushes"? Yep. - - - Updated - - - Nah, the reality is that he walked up, picked up the gun, fired a shot for the camera, and headed back to play with his putter.
... and that's the guy who found and killed Bin Laden. He's also the President who has eliminated the more terrorists leaders in the history of the United States. Nevertheless, he is still a wimp for Conservatives.
