I don't think we can "unsee" that gun. However, there is a possibility that it can cure cataracts.

I wonder, did that guy build up his stock to match that very high sighting plane, or, did he build up the sighting plane to match the very high stock? Bet it was a nice field gun before all that "stuff" happened to it.

The gun in question is rumored to be a Holland & Holland, which he can afford.

Yeah, I noticed that too. I put a straight-edge across that rib, or truss, or whatever it is, and it is lined up with his eyebrow. Maybe the real advantage to it is making your competitors giggle so much that they can't shoot well.

As Drew says, he can afford to do whatever he wants. As a billionaire member of Dubai's ruling family, he could use a Holland and Holland as a truck gun.


A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

I think he just uses that gun to win gold medals with.


He probably has other shotguns to bird hunt with like an old Thomas Boss he keeps bouncing around in a gun rack mounted in his 1987 Ford F150.

Yes, well, he may well be a skeet shooter according to the ISSF strip on his jacket!
