The "sideways smoke" is due to a compensator. It reduces some of the felt recoil.

I'm not well versed on rifles and shotguns. Could someone tell me why a puff of smoke is coming out sideways?
that model, either comes with or was modified with a small hole near the top of the barrel to allow forced gas to escape through and help mitigate recoil(the pushing itself upward) the allow for faster target reaquisition as it significantly decreases the amount of time bringing the rifle back down and permits the use to remain with the sights more or less lined up to the eye.

Loved the one with H.M. The Queen. Too bad they couldn't have worked in this one of her. Wouldn't have been quite as funny...just love the old pic.

Edit: Can't fix the pic. Came up "Mary Leakey's 100th Birthday" Google graphic. L.

Do you really shoot skeet that low? It looks more like he's aiming for a high stationary target...

Strange, it's rendering right for me. Oh well, thanks anyway. It's supposed to be a pic of then Princess Elizabeth shooting while on a boat.

After looking at the entire contents of that Buzzfeed link, two of my longheld beliefs have been thankfully reaffirmed: 1) Humor, like beauty, is very much in the eye of the beholder; and 2) There are an awful lot of people out there with way too much time on their hands.
