Art-o-Fact unearthed from the trenches

Rusted Water Cooled Browning This Art-o-fact started as a thermos, u joint and medal stock with brake and machine parts added .This sculpture Spent a good part of its life under water building that wonderful pitted Deteriorated Patina. This is a half size model 1917 machine gun to fit in with those smaller folk art weapons collections. Originally the title was water cooled gun, but because of the word ( Gun ) the sculpture could not be sold in California ,New York or New Jersey, where the word ( Gun ) is illegal so the title was changed . If you live in one of these states it is up to you to get all of necessary permits and pay fees and taxes to use this word - just joking and I am not running this year so I should stay out of it…but if I did run I would promise one of my machine guns in every kitchen
