Michelle Rodriguez not sure what movie she is in a lot of action films. Not vintage but could not resist.

 

Looks like they just built a plastic shell around an AR....

She doesn't look plastic to me.

Had both the lever Daisy models back in dawn of my youth...but never the pump. Always wanted one. Just never seemed to find one.

Looks like some birds decided to use the barrel if they weren't going too.

Very interesting. I'm guessing the expended cases were ejected from the cyclinder from the rotational force?

There have been some truly amazing and unique firearms built. Wish I had them all!!

Actually got to see and touch one of these at a private auction in the late 90s. I liked it. The look and feel was perfect for me. I thought I saw a lot of the P-38 influence in the design. No...I didn't even attempt to bid. Way out of my league!

Ok, so which one of you guys is this? Fess up. 

I wonder if he is deciding if he can carry the buck on the other shoulder? Never seen deer carried that way.

Looks like another too clean German photo. Hitler was known for all his photo ops so I don't know if this one is vintage or recreation.

I'm thinking a recreation. Look at the kneepads on the soldier on the left.

Kneepads look correct.  MG42 is unloaded with soldiers finger on trigger.  That seems staged.  The front two guys also look a bit too old for fallschirmjagers.  Plus the third guy is about to shoot his buddy in the back with that MP40.  MP40 sling is on the wrong side of the gun.
