Oleg, your use of selective focus and the text are excellent. What type of revolver is that? I would opt for something modern but non-threatening like a S&W 686 or a Ruger SP-101.
 
Any chance that it would be possible to blur her out more in the first image, or use a blurred image where it is not easily recognizable as a minority female?
 
Excellent work, Oleg. I really like it.


If you're interested in suggestions... :)

I wonder if it would pierce more people if it were "Advocates of Gun Control..." rather than "Enemies of armed self defense..."

Just thinking more people think of themselves as gun control advocates than enemies of armed self defense.

The phrase you chose does have a power of its own, and you may be trying to emphasize that. But if you're trying to bring people (fence sitters) to the enlightened side, calling them the "enemy" might just widen the divide between us.

Thanks for doing what you do.
 
Next version of the poster, yes. Besides, she is Chinese and as such a majority female.

The gun is a target version of Webley mk.IV in 45ACP/455
 
This poster aims to demonize the most vocal enemies in the eyes of fence-sitters.[/QUOTE
I'd say your aim is pretty good. And at the risk of sounding sycophantic; Oleg I admire your work, this site and all you have done and are doing for the 2nd ammendment.
Thank you.

Good one Oleg. A black semiauto and more out of focus in each picture might make it even more powerful.
 
Oleg, I've gotta say that I also think that "gun control advocates" might be a better term... It's not as "strong" as "enemies," but it also won't shut folks brains down...

Hmm... fence sitters...

Also, some folks might see that as a gun and a shooter about to shoot an innocent person.

"Gun Control Advocates Fear This"

"Target Shooting Is Fun For Everyone."

Replace the text in green with a-human-right.com.

And Oleg, do you ever take pictures of "ordinary" guns?
