The fan-made Halo 3 MA5C AR rifle photo

When people talk about gamer culture, they usually refer to stuff like cosplay and the meticulously laser-cut fan-made Halo 3 MA5C AR rifle that guys like Link4044 make in their spare time. We can assure you that 99% of gamers are much lazier than this man and we're all just happy he takes pictures of the stuff. Check out his impressive work in the mirrored gallery below. As the digger noted: "The resemblance is uncanny."

He began the project in December using Corel Draw to model the pieces and had it all laser cut. Amazing work ... but does it make Covenant coffee?

..it would be better to use a 'background' other then an old low profile tire ???

Maybe like someone holding it or something ?
Just a thought..

Yay racism. =|

Anyways, beyond offending people.
It's a pretty sweet looking gun, maybe not practical, but fun.
