One of the dreaded plastic non-detectable guns.

It's that clear plastic airport invasion gun the liberal democrats keep carrying on about and wanting to ban.

Looks like a P-38 space modulator, capable of destroying whole planets and is completely undetectable. Don’t let O know you have it…………………oops may bad, the NSA just find out. :roll:

I lost the pic after the aborted posting. Many creative guesses, anyway. Just looked in my saved files. Guess I didn't save it good enough, not there. Cheers!!

I found the link in my computer, but the file is apparently bad. It was a battle rifle that was left leaning against a tree, and the tree grew around it. it has the single stack magazine like any of the mannlicter(sp?) designs, but does not appear to have a split bridge. I know you won't be able to tell me anything. Maybe I'll find it again and repost. :-)

I hope you find the photo again, I'd really like to see it.
When I left my 49 Plymouth parked in the backyard for 8 years before scrounging the parts to put it back on the road, a sapling grew up till it hit the back bumper then grew around it. after trimming the shoots It looked like a Zombie hand rising from the grave grasping the bumper.
Doing a quick search I could not find the rifle you mentioned but found stories of other rifles and shotguns found grown into trees.
Local tribes made war clubs by carving a groove around a shaped stone and then splitting a sapling, placing the stone in the split, then binding the sapling above and below the cut. The sapling then grew solidly around the stone making a shaft with near unbreakable bond to the head.
PS
Could it have been a Straightpull Mannlicher. I don't think they had a split bridge.
Battle rifle leaning against a tree? Probably French or maybe Italian.. :-)

They used to speak of a custom stock makers inletting being so good it looked like the wood had grown around the steel. Wonder if that could be done.
