The thought ran through my head about copywrite as soon as I saw that pic.
One should always aknowledge the fact that a pic. or article is "borrowed" in case you get bounced.
Besides, I like it.

My apologies if I offended anyone with my sarcastic humor, I had no idea there was/is a meaningful story attached.. However, in my own defense, not relating the story surrounding the paint job left it wide open for criticism. Not to mention it's posted in a thread where bashing bubba's cobble jobs seems to be the thing to do.

Clearly to make it look like something it isn't, in meatier terms, on a very thin budget, with very little "practical use" operationally. I have to say it sounds like they have a new boss in charge of Firearms who is a young upstart trying to bring Star Wars to the streets of India.................sadly quite common, from Cars/trains to weapons and uniforms!

Although, this is the first I heard about a story behind that particular rifle.

He’s in the USA

Color is also spelled without a u here and a f@g is not a cigarette.

The brightly painted rifle was featured in a thread some years back, maybe 2010-12ish?, which told most of the story known on this forum. I just can't think of good search terms!
