I have been shooting firearms over 40 years, and have no porting on any of my firearms. the only people I know of that have porting are older shooters, competition shooters and smaller people that have trouble with the recoil.

But paired with Obama it gives the whiners another meaningless, stupid thing to whine about.

Funny we never heard these same people commenting on Cheney's shooting abilities, eh?

Since the president is using the guns they have at Camp David rather than a personal weapon... your point is what again?

This picture was obviously an attempt at proving that he does what he obviously doesn't do.

Gun Expert:
If you spend a day at the range, and shoot a lot you'll want a shot gun like that. There is nothing unusual about them, and there is nothing manly about using a differnet kind of shotgun. It is probably a shotgun from the Camp David collection anyway, so why is this a big deal?

Cheney never posed with a gun for a photo op.

Anyone with half a brain can detect a phony shooter by just observing the position of the stock against the shoulder and the cheek against the stock.

"Pansy' is being kind. The other word that comes to mind would not pass the forum's guidelines.

I too would love a heavy gas recoil range gun. I'd actually like start treating trap and skeet as a sport. But since I have only one very light double barreled kick stick I use range days for hunting skills. If I do three sets my shoulder wont lift my arm easily for a few days. And this is a 20 gauge!
If Obama really wanted to wow people, he should have had this photo taken with the UTS-15 shotgun. The responses would have been a real hoot to listen to.


UTS-15 - YouTube

What I find interesting is that liberals' didn't seize on the photo with a big "I told you so" proclamation. Since so little hoopla has been made over the photo, one can only assume that even liberals know that releasing such a goofy picture didn't do anything to help the President's case.

LOL
