Note the angle of the gun compared to Obama's picture.

The recently released photograph of President Obama reportedly “Taken at Camp David – the Maryland presidential retreat – on August 4, 2012, his 51st birthday,” is a complete fake.
As a lifelong shotgunner, I immediately smelled a rat. Nothing in the photo looks right and upon closer examination, it is a complete fraud.
One need go no further than examining the ports on the shotgun. Ports are tiny holes sometimes drilled near the muzzle (the business end of the gun) to release energy and reduce recoil. They serve as a pressure release valve of sorts. One will immediately notice that there is smoke coming from the right side of the gun in the photo as well as out the front. The only problem is that there is no smoke coming from the ports on the left side of the gun, clearly seen in the photo suggesting that the smoke was doctored into the photo. Furthermore, the smoke exiting on the right side of the gun does not match the port pattern on the left. If this gun was being fired as suggested by the White House, then the smoke would be coming out the ports on the gun clearly seen in the picture and evenly on both sides.
To add insult to injury, the smoke pictured is not clearly defined and appears to be moved by wind. At this stage in the firing process, this phenomenon would be nearly impossible. The smoke should look like it is being rapidly forced out small holes instead of something wafting from a chimney.

It is a doctored photo from a flint lock pistol discharge.

Note how the smoke actually makes little vortexes as it is blown out. I guess the camp david guns are able to avoid the usual laws of physics regarding gas flow. And the quantity of smoke is WAY less than with barry’s gun. I’m guessing that barry (or his stunt double) posed holding the gun and the crack team of white house photo fakers added the smoke for dramatic effect.
Note the angle of the gun compared to Obama's picture.
Obama: All smoke and no lead..
So the President is shooting a gun which has the very same features that supposedly turn ordinary semiautomatic rifles into "assault rifles." But logically speaking, wouldn't those same features have the same effect on any weapon, including the one he is using?
Yet another example of why there is no logical basis for the proposed legislation, just a desire by leftists to disarm America. Maybe somebody should ask the President why he needs a gun with a threaded barrel and a muzzle brake. Sen. Feinstein thinks nobody needs a gun with those features.
Come on, man - don’t be such a cynic! The One is shooting ground skeet - a special camp david variety.
Good shot of the smoke. Looks nothing like the smoke from the camp david gun. Leftie hubris must prevent the white house staff from hiring people who actually know how to fake photos.
Do a search for images of "obama signing bill' or 'obama throwing ball' or 'obama golf swing." There are hundreds of thousands of them.
I'm sure you must have seen some of these.
It has to feel a bit awkward for Barack actually being on the opposite end of a “shotgun”, as he was so much in his college days.
Some people who are new to guns have a stance where they lean back before they fire. Not a great plan, but it happens.
That thing on the top muzzle looks like the nut on a sub-caliber adaptor to me, and that smoke looks like it’s coming out of a spray can. I think he’s shooting a blank of a smaller gauge. Blanks are often loaded with black powder, since they’ll still make noise even at almost zero chamber pressure. Also explains the lack of visible recoil effect. There’d be much less risk of him hurting himself as well. Can’t explain the vertical smoke.
That would have been algore looking in the business end of an M16 barrel.
Obama needs to get a tan on those legs.
Overanalyzing a straightforward picture of a staged pic of an incompetent shooter.
See my post #69. When signing bills his watch is on his left hand.
I’ve been examining this pixel-by-pixel, and haven’t found too much to be concerned with.
There is a chance that he was set up to take a single picture after a few minutes of training here.
What I have noticed:
The watch isn’t his Jorg Gray watch that everyone seems to be fawning over. He wears that watch in the pool, playing golf, and just about every public appearance.
The smoke not coming from the other port is because he only fired one barrel. The top barrel is ported to the right, and the lower barrel ported to the left.
The wafting smoke can be reproduced, and I have seen other ported barrels producing similar wafts after the bullet leaves the barrel. The gun is kicked backward during the vent, leading a forward plume.
This is important: The gun is in motion (Motion blurred) but his arms are not. his arms are completely pixel-steady. His head is as well. His cheek is in a neutral position on the buttstock.
On his ring finger there is something “odd”, almost like an engagement ring worn before his wedding band.
I am analyzing skin tones today, looking for anomalies. I am also analyzing the veins in his head (His normal head veins appear in a shape of a “V” leading from his temples to his hairline.)
The top barrel of the gun appears to some sort of choke, or something. I can’t clearly make it out. Whatever it is, is not on the under barrel.
As far as the over/under barrel design, I’m not sure what gun we’re looking at here. It would appear that he has actuated the front trigger. In typical designs, this would trigger the lower barrel. I’m sure that’s nothing though, I’m no professional on every style of competition shotgun (That is a field that is frankly, daunting to research. It’s not like I can ever afford one of those beauties)
Next I am talking to skeet shooting professionals about the setting of the photo. If he is left handed, I would like to know where the targets are launched from, and if he would have treeline and pavement on his right, for a left-handed shooter. All of these points, however; are nit-picky and not at all capable of holding water in an argument.
The sad thing is that we have NO reason to believe that anything this moron does is real. His history is absolutely 100% falsehoods.
It's all part of his Comprehensive (Illegal) Immigration (Illegal) Reform (Illegal) Bill.
I’m not good at posting pics but you should post 0 and this pic, one on top of the other. Maybe even a few other pics if you can find some.
There are holes on the left side of the top barrel and no smoke. The trigger on over/under shotguns have a single trigger and semi auto type firing. Side by side shotguns have 2 triggers.
