Is that an M-16 rifle in Harolds room?
In episode 10 of season 2 "Genie with a light brown lamp" there is a seen where Dorothy and Hazel are tucking Harold into bed and Hazel reads Harold a story. In the background on top of a book case or something is a toy(I assume)rifle that bares a strong resemblance to an M-16. It is leaned vertically against the wall below two crossed American flags. The rifle more strongly resembles a Mattel M16 Marauder which was the toy version of the M-16 battle rifle first issued to troops in Vietnam in 1963. However this episode was made long before that and didn't air until November of 1962. The toy version wasn't introduced until 1966 or thereabout. Still there is that rifle in this scene. It's black, appears to have a black pistol grip stock and hand guard and a protruding magazine of the same size and shape as the M16 Marauder/M-16. The magazine appears to be a little wider than the real M-16 rifle which is consistent with the Marauder toy version. Anyone else ever see this? If anyone has access to this episode please watch it and tell me if you see the same thing or not.
