THIS JUST IN: The Big White has released a picture purporting to show President Obama "skeet shooting" at Camp David
(Excerpt) Read more at michellesmirror.com ...
Anybody notice how high on the shoulder that shotgun is in the original photo? Also, he’s standing pretty straight up for shooting a 12 gauge. No lean in while shooting clays??
I’m not a “sketter” but it’s glaringly obvious he doesn’t shoot “all the time”
There was also a puff of smoke from the top of half way down the barrel. What is THAT? Moby Dick? O the Dick?
Is this a Winchester or a Daisy?
LOL
I think the first amendment covers the right to do that.
That’s gas from the compensator ports in the barrel - many high-end shotguns have barrel porting to reduce muzzle rise..
ROTFLOL He is going to relate a lot of his homies in that picture.
My husband says that is a muzzle loader and skeet uses smokeless rounds in a shot gun.
Enough research has already been done to show that this is likely not a photo of Obama skeet shooting. The Camp David skeet shooting range is surrounded by a wooden fence.
This is likely the Camp David target shooting range which is in a half circle with paved paths and surrounded by woods.
Satellite photos are circulating around as well as historical photos of previous Presidents shooting skeet.
They either released the wrong photo on purpose to confuse the issue or because there wasn’t a photo available of Obama actually skeet shooting.
or reduce recoil for the little pansy-a$$
And it is news to us in the sticks about “high end” shotguns. We use Mossbergs and the royalty at Palace Camp David use Brownings or better.
But thanks for your explanation.
Check out the gun he’s using at http://www.michellesmirror.com
That’s a Browning Citori, I believe, just like mine. For shame.
Paraphrasing another FReeper from another thread...Obama can’t even shoot a shotgun without making it look gay.
There are many things suspicious in this picture. I used to shoot a lot of trap/skeet back in the old days. Factoring in the muzzle rise/angle (even with the compensator) I’d say he is shooting either at a target or he’s ‘busting birds’ .00002 seconds after they exit the trap box.
NOBODY is that good, nobody!
We all know it was yet another staged photo-op.
Nice how he only has one choke screwed in it (unless the other is flush mount).
If he’s shooting trap, he’s probably so slow that he’s hitting the bird while it’s dropping (and we all know how well that works). Plus they probably have the trap locked to throw straighaways and he’s on station 3.
It's relatively clear that he has never shot a gun until that photo op.
I’m surprised that they used that photo since it makes it so obvious that he’s not a regular trap or skeet shooter.
First, he’s not dressed for shooting a lot of rounds. Anyone that shoots a lot is going to wear a vest or shirt that has a recoil pad since after about 20 rounds the recoil starts to wear you out even if you’re using a compensated gun like in that photo. Plus there’s no way in hell he could get any shells into or out of those tight jeans so a vest or shirt with pockets designed to hold shells is even more important.
Second, that gun isn’t properly fitted. The pull length and drop both look wrong to me. Although it might just be his terrible shooting form that makes it look wrong.
Any self-respecting instructor would correct Odumbo’s terrible fore end grip in that photo. And you’d think that anyone in his position would want to at least appear to know what he’s doing and would have a line of left-wing nut shooting instructors that would have given him free instruction if he actually was shooting “regulary” and cared about it.
You misheard your darling hubby. What he actually said was, "That is a Muzzie Load, dear"
