And he's a lefty, I knew it.
Wait a minute, why is that shotgun belching smoke? I have shot clay birds
all my life and have never witnessed a modern shotgun blow smoke. Weird?

Chinese shells? Some of that shit is foul! Kicks like a mule and loads up the bore with all sorts of crud. Smoky too.

I have never seen any chinese shotgun shells and their cheap Ak 47 ammo
uses smokeless powder. Corrosive maybe but smokeless.
It does not appear to be a flintlock or muzzleloader but I'm not up to date
on gun identification. Weird how the smoke comes out of one side of the barrel
as well as the front. Even if it is black powder it would not do that unless the
barrel exploded right?

It's a Citori 12ga. (Japanese Browning). Good guns. I used to have a Citori 20ga. side-by-side that I liked a lot. My fave of all time, though, was a 12ga. field grade Beretta "Silver Snipe" O/U, mod/imp. Beautiful, easy gun.

I wondered about that jet of smoke out the side too. WTF? Maybe the vari-choke wasn't screwed in all the way?

I'm going back a long time on the Chinese shot shells, maybe 30 years. After I saw what it did to the bore and felt what it did to my shoulder , I never used that shit again. As I remember, it used no shot cup and instead of a cushion between powder and shot (like there is on the shot cup) there was just a hard cardboard wad. Memory might be off here.

I'll buy that.

I'm still curious about the second plume in the original picture though. I don't care who the shooter is.

If you look closely, you can see the ports in Obama's gun. There's no great conspiracy at work here.

Camera shutter speed vs moving object...

Nothing stands out in this photo as to be a fraud... the only thing that seems not right to me are the Sun Glasses... those are not shooting glasses, but then again he is not a pro. He is just having fun.

Finn - with the right shutter speed you shouldn't see the ports in the gun
