Flipping through a 2002 catalog, I glanced at this ad. I quickly did a double take, and realized I had no clue what it was. Any help? The body and rail seem to be squared :tard:

It looks distinctly squared from the front (near the barrel). I'm pretty sure it's not a stock SS

No, it's a round body with a bad photoChop job.

It does look like they ground down the dove tail mounts on the side of the rail though.

They apparent grinding down or polishing of the rail isn't there either. It's part of the photo editing job...

Yeah, probably had some stickers on it they didn't like or something.

probably a sticker for someone who didn't pay for advertising space in the mag

its only called photochop when it isnt used correctly, and here is a prime example of someone who called them selves a graphic designer just because the had a free version of photoshop...and somehow got a job at that magazine..
