If an AR-15 and an AK-47 Had a Frankengun Child …

There are so many things wrong with this photo that Trevor emailed us, I don’t know where to start. It looks like a mad gunsmith took random AR-15 and AK parts and welded them together.
My gut feeling is that this image is a photoshop. Am I wrong?
UPDATE: I am wrong! Eastern European film makers have used these faux AR-15s in a number of movies. See the comments below.
[ Many thanks to Trevor for the tip. ]
I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

BULLSHIT!!
There's Commando with Arnie Schwarzer running around with a Finnish AK that he somehow captured from communists, and Escape From New York with AR-15s with no handguards and no gas tubes to look futuristic.
