I thought everyone could use a funner thread. I just saw a blast from the past (1996) that has me trying to figure out what I just saw. It was s movie “The Long Kiss Goodnight” and this was the rifle:
IMFDB just identifies it as a “modified Remington 700” but I found that far too vague for a cool takedown rifle. Anyone have any idea who made that? Was it ever comercially available or was it a custom job? If it was just a movie prop they went in to a heck of a lot of detail, it just looks like something that “should” have existed somewhere in the real world in the 90’s, it just looks like something someone actually put together and it would be interesting to know who did the work.
Here is the scene:
IMFDB also noted that the same rifle also seems to appear in “Absolute Power” in 1997, and it looks like it might:
Another odd takedown rifle also appears in the same movie, also just identified as a Remington 700:
Any ideas?
