    Looks like what would happen if a Japaneseicon LMG mated with a MAS 36, sort of.

    Looks like the rifle that a marketing committee developed after holding a focus group.

    Looks like an interesting and adaptive use of a surplus receiver.(Had it been british, I might have looked twice.)

    I have dealt with this seller and will probably see him and this "thing" at a show this weekend. Who knows, maybe I will buy it and send it to you for Christmas this year instead of a lump of coal!!

    Look on the bright side, the charger bridge and backsight ears are still there. Could be a lot worse.
    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.

    Bugly is an apt discription.

    On a practical note, I think you would have to have a 2 foot long head just to achieve a sight picture with a proper cheek weld as high as the scope is above the stock comb.
