Aliens Reference

ModeratorPraetorianOct-13-2018 1:19 AMMy 2 year old Daughter is a mad Despicable Me fan. We were recently watching the third film which had a throw-back 80s villain antagonist.
Lots of references to the 80's throughout the film....music in particular, but this one stood out to me
Looks a little like a certain M41a Pulse Rifle.....
Not the first time the iconic design has been referenced in Pop Culture however...
Yes you Archer!
Though of a Bullpup design the other similarities of this weapon are unmistakably an Aliens reference, most notably the context of the particular episode.
On another note, here is a cool firing replica of an M41a

MemberTrilobiteOct-12-2019 4:37 PMActually, I think the 41A is basically an Uzi- a 9mm spray and pray weapon.
