I can already smell the ones... ;-)

While I do not condemn the use of weapons or violence in pictures as a matter of principle (and even really like some of the entries of that kind, 606150 or 582516, for example), I feel that displaying a gun the way you did is not really a suitable idea for this challenge. I can think of various ideas to use a gun in a clever way for this challenge (something like this 614672 in time lapse. Or a duell scene. Or ...), but this is not one of them. It's just boring. You could have taken the same picture with any other object and it would be equally boring. It pales in comparison to all the sports shots in this challenge. So: 3.

I like the way the eyes and lens lead you out of the picture, makes me wonder what he's looking at
