It says something to me about the relationship between the people as well as between the gun owners and their arms. I am very undecided about the cropping of the bottom. To me number 2 is too tight. The arm chair in the lower left or number 3 helps lead the eye to the main subject, as does the outstretched leg of the woman on the left. The black whatever it is in the middle of the bottom edge doesn't do a lot for me. I'd eliminate it. I've been sitting at my monitor holding a legal pad long ways across the bottom of shot number three. Give it a try. You might like this shot better as a long and wide print with more of a panoramic feel, with the chair edited out. That, of course, takes away some of the environmental portrait aspect of the shot. I like it, but am really undecided about how best to crop and frame it.
