The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Spotted this on Evilbay and thought something didn't look quite right see how long it takes you to figure it out!?
The pic itself is from a hoodie being sold Buy It Now from Italy.

My monitor is crappy, but only thing I can see cased rounds, they even look to long for the mag

EDIT: no ejection port for the grenades?

Cased rounds for 1 point! Also they're bottlenecked although I'm not sure if it has ever been established whether he 10mm caseless round is bottlenecked like a rifle round or a parallel like a pistol round? To my mind there is no need for it to be bottlenecked.

And yes your edit is part of the other answer I was looking for! ;) Look again.

That's a part of it too! :D

In actual fact, if you look closely, the whole thing although shown as a Right Hand Side view ALL the details except the counter are Left Hand Side details. In short someone has mirror-imaged the side view and then added a counter!

The first thing I spotted was the small metal plate on the Grenade Pump which I believe attaches the SPAS grip to the real pump action which should be on the left side! Then I noticed the GL Ejection Port and the cutaway in the grip were missing. Then the cocking handle was missing and so on.

EDIT to illustrate the flipped image on the right is a perfect left side view of a Pulse Rifle with the exception of the counter!

It's a pulse rifle with GOD AWFUL Counter-Strike syndrome.

"YO DAWG IT LOOKS COOLER WITH THE EJECTION PORT ON THE LEFT SIDE SO I CAN SEEZ THE SHELLS FLY OUT! IT GOES GOOD WIF MY DEAGLE WIF BEAMZ"

Thanks to it being converted to use cased ammo...
