: An even odder thingy with the manual pic of the M2-Infinity pistol, is that
: the scope looks to be attached to the barrel rather than to the slide or
: the frame. It wouldn't work. The slide would stop as soon as it impacted
: the scope mount on the barrel. You see, the barrel is stationary, attached
: to the frame. When fired, the slide is thrown backwards by recoil
: extracting then ejecting the empty casing and cocking the hammer. At the
: end of its travel a spring forces the slide back, the slide strips a
: cartridge from the magazine and seats it into the chamber of the barrel.
: The thing as shown would probably blow up with a magnum round partially
: extracted. If nothing else, it would jump out of your hand and drag its
: butt across the floor while yelping like a throat kicked dog.
Look closeley at the firing and reload animations for the M2 pistol, especially the first frame in the sequence (#9). The scope appears to be attached to only one side of the gun. The piece that attaches the scope to the gun looks a little too thin though. If it's a lasersight, it might also be a cable that leads to a button on the handle, but it doesn't seem like there's anything else connecting the scope to the pistol.
