I’m not familiar with most of the movie/TV references, but if *I* were profecting myself from a tornado, I’d get my bicycle helmet, not a rifle. What’s she going to do – shoot each piece of ceiling as it falls past her head?
Not that it matters, but:
* yes, this is obviously a re-enactment of a scene from “I am Legend.”
* it’s not an SKS. It’s a .22 calibre sporting rifle (probably a Ruger 10/22, although a lot of these little .22′s are very similar in appearance.) That is, a rabbit gun. To which someone has, for reasons best known to themselves, fitted a transparent, aftermarket extended “banana” magazine. The magazine has such extreme curvature because the teensy .22 LR cartridge is a rimmed cartridge, which considerably increases the relative angle between adjacent rounds. In my experience, these magazines are very unreliable — they jam so often it would be far easier to use several normal size magazines.
* the dog is some sort of sighthound, probably a Scottish Deerhound. However it has somewhat run to fat, and a little grizzled as well, so I would say this an elderly dog being kept comfortable for his last days.
* the object on the toilet is not another gun, it is some sort of fanny-pack — probably the case for the camera.
First of all, @PACman, why the hell would you put a drum magazine on a pink SKS. (I’m pretty sure thats what it is). And second of all, I just thought of this, Why in the world would you call your husband into the bathroom to take a picture of yourself, your dog, your baby, and your assault rifle?
The kid has her thumb on the trigger!! I wonder if when the camera flash went off she flinched and shot a hole in the ceiling…which of course would have scared the irish-anteater-wolf-dog-muppet!
Is that a semi-automatic sitting on the toilet in the reflection of the leftmost mirror? I guess he was able to part with it for a few seconds so he could capture this timeless piece of history.

Why would you put a drum magazine on a pink SKS? If you knew anything think about weaponry, the military puts drum mags on light machine guns and some submachine guns.

Salut! This is well done. Back one day again.
The kid is the scariest thing in this photo…its thumb is on the trigger………..
Oh. My. God.
That dog is hilarious! I never cared for making a comment on this site, but that dog has forever made a mark on my life and i needed to share it!
The expression on its face is priceless!
Yes, that is ALF as someone said earlier!

who the hell puts a banana clip on a single shot rifle? where do you go abouts getting a pink rifle anyway?
AHAHAHAH!!! Oh one of the best!!!
Scottish Deerhound, Semi-Automatic and Conditioner. The classic prop trifecta
If I was that baby I would have my finger on the trigger as well.

well done
Thanks Dwight!
It’s a remington 597, have the same rifle but grey synthetic, not pink, actually I didn’t know they made a pink one!
It’s not very often that you see a bath mat with a face.
At least someone cleaned the tub. The ring-around-the-tub would have diminished this classic work of photography.
I mean really….when I think of a family photo, I always think of evil-anteater-thingies and my pink assault rifle. Always.

best part is the list of tags: animals, babies, guns

I think the dog is a Scottish Deerhound….
A woman’s gotta protect her tresemme.
A women, kid, dog, and pink shotgun… Let the fun begin!
Cool! Thats the same shampoo we use.
wow she has a peace sign on her pants but shes holding a gun wow….
I personally like the feet in the mirror off in the background hahaha.
here baby, hold the gun for mama a minute….
if it is a mock up of I AM LEGEND its very badly done, so much so its just sad tsk tsk tsk.
That’s not a real firearm , right?……RIGHT!!????!!!
I think the dog looks like Marjory the trash heap from Fraggle Rock, but with demon eyes…
DUDE! Best comment yet!

Nothing says family fun like a pink semi-auto rifle, one small child, a large rat dog with evil glowing eyes all together in the family tub!

This child with be forever scarred … growing up with a dog like that.
What scaring me most is not the rifle or the mother holding her baby AND a rifle, no it is the “thing” on the left, WHAT THE HELL IS IT ???
“Peace through superior rimfire”, I like it. I also like the dog. 10/10
Reminds me of the book/movie “Legend” where he would hide in the bathtub at night with a rifle and his dog. The peace sign is kind of ironic, though!
I’m a member of the webforum that produced that picture. That’s from a thread based on that scene as a joke.
I’m glad they got over their fear of the tornado in order to take time out for the photo op.
why are they bathing with an anteater?
It’s a opossum.
It’s AN opossum
That dog looks like a rug with a head.
The dog looks like a cross between an Irish Wolfhound and an anteater.
FAVORITE COMMENT
I agree Molly! Favorite comment!!!!
♪♫ Tresemme, Tresemme! Ooh, la, la! ♪♫
lol!
LMAO! Yeah I was thinking that Tresemme just completes the collection of unrelated items LOL!
Britters: how’d you do the “music symbol” signs ? Cool !
Forget the mirrors! Who cares about the enormous rat? That thing has a thirty shot gilded banana clip! That gun is not for huntin’ animals!
What is your definition for animals? Because last time I checked humans are animals, some with more characteristics of a wild one.
The clip is plastic, not gilded.
It’s a magazine, not a clip!
might i suggest a drum mag?
Modern Drummer is about the best…
…jus’ sayin’…
Why would you put a drum magazine on a pink SKS? If you knew anything think about weaponry, the military puts drum mags on light machine guns and some submachine guns.
Sorry, friend; that a Ruger 10/.22 rifle. Sold lots of the pink things for Mother’s Day. Sold lots of the banana clips, too.
Dude, if you had that giant wookie jump in your bathtub with you, you’d want a thirty shot magazine for protecting your baby too.
it looks like the lil girl is saluting lol
she’s also about to pull the trigger !
God Bless America!
That is not a dog…. no way is that a dog. More like a giant squished rat.
favourite post hahahaha. it does look like a big squished rat. a scared squished rat at that.
I thought it was a puppet for a bit hahaha.
THAT’S NOT A DOG . WHAT THE HECK IS IT LOL .
Irish wolfhound pup, maybe?
It’s clearly some kind of sight hound
irish deer hound
Chewbacca and the I-Spy characters had a lovechild.
FALCOOOOR!!
Atreyu, I don’t think your gonna find him in here.
The child is saying “Pink rifle, pink peace sign. Dad likes mirrors whereever he is naked. that’s my parents for you. don’t judge them.”
Who has that many mirrors around the tub???
someone who lives in an old trailer
Hey now I live in a new trailer and I have even bigger mirrors around my tub! They look nice though.
The dog looks more scared than the child…also nice peace sign on the pants, really kubrick-esque.
thats a dog? it looks more like a large rat…
It’s an R.O.U.S!! I didn’t think they existed…
“Have fun storming the castle!”
LOVE!
Point for the Princess Bride reference.
For a moment there, I thought it was ALF.
been waitin for a good comment on the dog-
ALF–brought tears to my eyes!!!! fuuuuny
