-:Are you sure this isn't just another cut-down Browning A-5.  That was always my impression in this shot.  It doesn't seem to have the forestock for a pump-action, but it does seem to match the profile for the A-5 (there is a gap between the barrel and magazine).  It is hard to tell because it is just the silhouette and without seeing the trigger guard.  Also, it could be a Remington Model 11 (if it is indeed a pump-action).[[User:SAWGunner89|SAWGunner89]] 06:01, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
