Yes the rifles were captured in motion (split second) by the camera. What gives it away is the position of the left hand. That is where the Kingsmen member's left hand goes while spinning. If you think about it there is no margin for error...if you lose control it is a drop for sure. That is the way they were taught and probably made them better because of it.

Here is another mind boggling shot. Think of the shutter speed of the camera and the tolerance for error from a timing perspective.

If you look at the left hand in this photograph it is the same concept. The maximum exposure is to have the left hand as far away from the rifle as possible rather than pre-positioned for the catch.

When you select your search option - you should select show results as posts not as topics and then you will get a direct hit or picture.
