Boston Globe Reporters Confuse Air rifles and Shotguns

Instapundit linked to this Boston Globe story about Mitt Romney and his stand on gun control.

The article has captioned this photo "Presidential prospect Mitt Romney checked out a display of shotguns Friday during his NRA-guided tour of a sprawling gun trade show in Orlando, Fla. (Gerardo Mora/ Getty Images for the Boston Globe)"

Too bad the reporters can't tell the difference between a shotgun and a pellet gun.  In case you're not familiar with them, all the rifles in that display are pellet guns.  See the break point at the end of the stock.  Here's a close up of some Chinese models.
