    What Do We Have Here? Experimentation?

    Was watching some historic hunting show footage a while back. What’s wrong with this picture, or is it, what’s right with this picture? Bit of experimentation going on.

    No explanation. After talking to a mate whose family member is associated with the show, I think they were expecting no one to notice.

    Very strange. Barreled action and stock separated and repositioned so action sits far rearward of it's usual position ? Picture is grainy but I assume the barrel is screwed into the front of the action.
    Question is why ? What is it supposed to achieve ? As suggested, overall shortening without sacrificing barrel length ?

    Front scope mount will be non existent

    Likely a mock-up for the show and unusable
