does anybody know if anyone do additional modern weapons m16 derivatives shotguns etc . this would be a greathelp to my dioramas

cheers rob

I'm pretty sure Dragon/DML has an old set out there. If you want to spend more money for a bit nicer ones Blast Models makes ones that have rails and scopes, etc too. M4s as well.

TANK who advertise in the side bar here on Armorama do a big range of modern weapons. Mouse Armour who are Australian do some also.

there seems to be a gap in the market for support weapons, shotguns and so forth any uk based websites selling stuff like this. am i the only one calling out for such items

Blast Models has excellent modern weapons sets of M4s, M16s, and M40 sniper rifles. As mentioned you can go for Tank, but I find them a bit expensive for what you get. Dragon has a number of older sets for the M-16 (though for military issue weapons, this set is not practical), AK-47 series rifles, AK-74 series rifles, machine guns (includes GPMG which can be used as Marine M240G), and it has a support weapons set which includes shotguns, M249, M60s, AT-4s, etc. Hobbyfan also has an accessory set that has US Army M249Bs and some AT-4s. The problem that I have is that I there is no one set like Blast Models that has current M249s or M240B. Hope that helps.

This is one of Dragon's kits

If you're looking for a UK-based source for Blast Models and Tank - try AFV Modeller

The HobbyFan set has the M240B Army version, but I agree, no one makes a set of the Para-SAW or the newer Mark 46 (5.56mm) and Mark 48 (7.62mm). No one makes the M-60E4 either.

Rob, what are you after? I've got a load of modern weapons in my stash. I'm sure we can do some swapping if you want. I don't do modern stuff anymore as I just concentrate on WW2. Let me know.

hi karl,
all types of m16s perhaps with grenade lancher and any shotguns and a sniper rifle !
would be excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tamiya make a set of modern US weapons as well. Saw it in an old catalogue but don't know if they're still made!

I too tell TAHK products, I am however in Canada, so if there are anyone out their that are looking for TAHK products, don't hesitate to give me a shout, also probably easier and cheaper for Canadian modelers to get them from me, rather than have them shipped up from the US.

Thanks

They are based in France. Currently, their shop is closed until 24th. I've ordered from them several times and all went smoothly.
