I am not hating on your customization of your gun. However, I worry that anytime someone makes a firearm look movie or toy-like (see the Nintendo G34), it is potentially setting them up for a bad situation.

Took this off a wild Cub in Cathedral, do not know how he got it, One of the hero props from Logan's Run. This was made in the golden era of props where the Gun had to somehow shoot on the set, show up on the camera and not hurt anybody. The days before the wonders of CGI.
This fires by loading Calcium carbonate & water in the back tube of the gun. Then you turn on the glow plug at the front of the barrel of the gun, using the switch in front of the trigger. When the trigger is pulled the glow plug ignites the gas and shoots the flame.. Power to run the glow plug comes from a 9 volt battery in the pistol grip.
Pulling the trigger results in an end of the runner problem...

VERY COOL!!!
I like it
And people roll their eyes at me when I tell them that movies sell guns. LOL.
Is this a homebrew or did you buy it? I'm really digging it. I find the 1851 Navy fits my hand really well.I have got a few...Here is a pic off the interweb (looks just like mine) of an "aged" Uberti 1873 with an 1851 grip and trigger guard assembly....
Used to own a Steyr AUG, but not modified. I did see the rifle (or an MSAR copy) being used on "The Walking Dead" by The Governor during an early attack on the prison (season 2, IIRC). I also noticed that it was using a left-ejecting bolt, as the actor was left-handed. Might be the only time I've noticed a left-ejecting rifle on TV or film, and I wonder if (and how) the props man got hold of a left-ejecting bolt for the AUG, as I imagine they're fairly rare.
The AUG was made for quick mods; swap out the port cover, drop in proper bolt, replace the butt plate and you're good to go.
