What is the discharge to his right from the barrel? Are they porting shotguns now to reduce recoil?
I learned to shoot shotguns as a very young boy, hunting quail and dove with my father. We learned instinctive hunting. It always looks strange to me for people to look down the barrel of the gun as if aiming a rifle. I get just as good of results "snap shooting" and find the other approach odd.

Oh good, that means the one is a sportsman just like me. Now I am convinced his gun control measures are for my own safety. /s

What is the discharge to his right from the barrel? I'm glad you asked that. Any "skeet shooters" here? What's up with that?

Smoke from a first shot? Gun level and no shoulder turn does not look like skeet shooting to me.

I have to wonder what the capacity of that shotgun he is using has?
Wouldn’t it be ironic if it was over 7....

Has he ever held a gun before? That high up on the shoulder will leave him with a nasty bruise.

Some shotguns are ported to reduce recoil. However, I’m wondering whether this might be a blank, due to the lack of muzzle rise and “smoke” evident. Personally, I would not trust Barry with a shotgun and live ammunition for obvious safety concerns; his Secret Service bodyguards.

Looks like he’s firing a blank.
Even with the lightest of loads you sould notice some recoil.

Don’t you just love it! An obviously staged “2nd Amendment” photo op complete with 1st amendment restrictions.

That weapon appears to be too high on his shoulder.
His aim for skeet is far too low.
What exactly is the “smoke” coming out of the top of the barrel? It’s too far back to be of consequence for stopping barrel jump.
What’s with all the smoke. He would have had to fire a lot of rounds to produce that much.

I’ll bet he’s a “crack” shot. Larry Sinclair knows so.

"The photo was staged to maximize smoke and minimize recoil,
and to deflect from our only real interest in guns
(other than weaponizing invading narcokillers and al Qaeda).
What difference does it make?"
