Is that a couple of bungee cords wrapped around the rifle and scope?

Could be. Looks like rubber straps but any hooks are on the opposite side.

The tube taped to the eyepiece looks silly, too.

Or maybe large zip ties holding the scope on. Highly unlikely it's solid enough for a reliable zero.

Everyone was reporting that it was an AK47 but that's a damn Bubba SKS with a makeshift scope! It's almost like it was just a prop...

The vast majority of the media and the sheeple don't know the difference and don't care.

I'm starting to think the photo is a prank. From the ridiculous scope mount to the out of focus shot. The picture quality doesn't look like anything a law enforcement agency would do.

MSPBS has issued a correction.
"Notable firearms expert Milo T. Phlegmsplat has informed us that the assault rifle in question is actually an Ak-15 firing the destructive Glock 37 millimeter ammunition equipped with an advanced sniper scope." We urge you to contact your members of Congress and demand that they ban such weapons of war.
