That rifle on the right is seriously skew-whiff by the look of it. If you attempted to fire the thing you would almost certainly die!!!.

Hi Rob,

just seems to be a lack of detail on the rifles and the thinness of the metal..

Cool

I see what you mean about the rifle being a bit off target, maybe its had a knock or been accidently bent.

As for colour and thinness of metal, this is something I cannot ascertain from a screen image, nothing like holding the item in your hand.

I had to look that one up and I discovered the Krummlauf experimental weapon. I've never heard of it before and I most certainly wouldn't want to be the one to fire the thing. Thanks for the education.
