Is the right side an actual shot? I should have watched shooting. I love the memes but what an interesting sport

It looks like he's about to shoot 90° off target so I hope not.

Spotted his nemesis in the audience

I don't believe it is, the sport uses air pistols, the one in the third image appears to be a normal pistol.

While it doesn’t make the image real there are plenty of airsoft pistols that use CO2 and propane. They look like the real thing, even knock the slide back and everything. Some are even designed to look more like sport shooting pistols.
