Bad *** Looking Firearm - Certain to be on the oster

[John J]

Is this real? Does anyone know what the specs on it are?

[afteractionreport]

Looks like a cg rendering...

[SILENT GUNMAN]

Searching cp500, which is what it looks like is on the bottom of the grip, brought up nothing relevant. BB gun maybe?

[Cool Custard]

Tere hanges for the oster!

[MacanTaillear]

Looks to me like a computer rendering by an artist who has seen guns, maybe even handled one, but who doesn't know guns.

Rifle rounds next to a pistol = fake

[NoHeavyHitter]

Fake gun w/insanely uncomfortable handgrip. You can have it - I don't want it..

[pterrell]

Interesting concept. Mean looking slug but it would be slow.

No, it's not real. Yes, it's a CG rendering. Here's how you do this*.

1. Download the image to your desktop

2. Visit http://images.google.com

3. Click on the camera icon, select the "upload an image" tab, and click "choose file."

4. Navigate to the image file on your desktop and click open.

5. Discover the online portfolio of one Alex Penescu, a freelance concept artist in SoCal who works in 3-D modeling software.

I actually think the dual purpose sights are a pretty cool idea.

* If you're using the Chrome browser, it's even easier — bring up the image in its own window, right-click it and select "Search Google for this image."

Grip looks entirely too big to be comfortable. I'll pass on the Luke Skywalker gun.

[VL221]

The round kind of reminds me of a 5.7.

Rifle rounds next to a pistol = fake

Define rifle rounds.

Rifle rounds next to a pistol = fake

There have been bottle necked pistol cartridges since the late 1800's. Why are you defining the ones pictured as "rifle rounds"?

[Merc1138]

Define rifle rounds.

And the CG cartridges in the OP's image don't look like 5.7 so... not sure what you're getting at. Hell, they're not even really bottlenecked, the case has a shoulder and that's it.
