“Here is the strange part however.. the pic of him IN the mall aiming the rifle, looks like an AK. I can see the 30 round mags taped together as well. The front of the rifle in that picture also looks to have a slant break muzzle device (which is common on AK47’s) and not the huge Yugo grenade launcher.”

That is very interesting. I would very much like to see those photos. Do you know where they are available?

Somebody pulled a “switcheroo”?

(The OPD just added an AK into their collection?)

I don’t see what you see in this picture of him in the mall.

I see an arm, a roll of sweatshirt, and probably the shirt he used to hide the gun in hanging from his right hand.

Clearly an SKS

Take a look at the muzzle break in post 91.. I have worked on my share of AKs, and that looks like a slant break on the end.. Also the front sight looks like that of an AK and not an SKS
