geebsThings that will annoy me until I figure it out. What is this gun seen in the preview for tonight's ep of SoA:
It appears to be a grenade launcher of some sort, going by the size of the barrel. What I want to know is if it is a real weapon, or something their prop department made up. For posterity mainly, because its not a weapon I recognize at all. I mean, the stock and trigger are reminiscent of the M-32, but the front end is a over-under design reminiscent of the China Lake Grenade Launcher or the Russian GM-94. Of course, the upper barrel seems to be vent-ribbed. The lower tube seems to be open faced also, which would lead one to think its some sort of double barrel design rather than the lower tube being a tubular magazine. Which makes me think it is a prop mock up then because the design makes no sense to me. Still, I must know!
