Yes, I guess it could also be a self-portrait, although I'm not sure I want myself portaited in a weaon! I really can't remember now, but upon looking at this picture and at others, there seems to be some kind of launcher thing pointing out at me in the top circle. In reality, it's to the left of the circular viewers as you face the weapon: Seehttp://www.pbase.com/image/21750653 andhttp://www.pbase.com/image/21750673.

You could also enter this in the self portrait challenge ! The weapon looks like its seen a lot of use. Where is the actual muzzel/launcher portion ? -johnebones
