I would imagine he's aiming at a paper target, that being what people who are training usually shoot at. Unless they're martyrs-in-training, in which case the targets are a bit more...shall we say "representational"? As we see in the other photo?

I'm sure they taught him how to shoot too, they wouldn't give such an expensive weapon to a kid without training afterall.
He surely hasn't had what I would consider *good* training; his finger's on the trigger without him being set up on a target.

Not to worry, if he accidently blows away one of his friends, instant martyr, and they'll say an Israeli soldier did it. When you get them by stealing them from the Israelis, M-16's aren't all that expensive. Most of his buddies do seem to have AK-47s, though. Maybe after the photo he had to give it back.
