God Bless America is an American black comedy written and directed by Bobcat Goldthwait starring Joel Murray and Tara Lynne Barr. Murray plays Frank Murdoch, a man with nothing to lose who embarks on a quest to rid America of rude and mean people.
One of the guns the gun dealer (played by armorer Mike Tristano) brings is a Rossi Cyclops. It's described as a ".357 Magnum, nickel finish, six shot, 8 inch barrel".
The gun dealer sells Frank a Chinese Norinco MAK-90 Kalashnikov variant with a stamped receiver that was apparently converted to fire in fully automatic mode, as the MAK-90 was a semi-automatic civilian sporting rifle. The thumbhole stock was replaced by an aftermarket pistol grip and the rear tang was covered up with a wooden block. One can still see the 'ground down' bottom of the front sight, which was mandated by ATF when it approved the MAK-90 for import. Frank and Roxy use this during the finale.
