Hi
Last week I saw a set of Russian figures on ebay and it included a seated figure firing a sg43 goryunov machine gun. I went to Duxford over the weekend hoping to pick up a set with no luck, now i cant find the set on ebay or even remember what set it was. I believe it was a Dragon set but not to even sure of that now as i cant find it any where.
Does anyone recognise the set so at least i know what to search for, Iam only really looking for the machine gun but would buy the set to get it.

Hi Peter,
What medium and scale? You mention "set" and DML so I'm thinking plastic and 1/35 scale?

Hi
Sorry for the lack of info in the original post, your assumptions are correct they were plastic 1/35.

Hmmm, I suspected as much. I had a look through the sites of some of the larger online resellers and didn't find the set you described. But if you see here, Tank items A-83 and A-84 are the Soviet 7,62 M.G. SG-43 (Tank) and Soviet 7,62 M.G. SG-43 (Infantry & A.A.) respectively, and so you could just pick up the guns if that's all you're really after

Hello Peter,I note that you are only interested in the machine gun Dragon have one in the panzermeyer LSSAH DIV set 6407 it is an excellent premium set but would be expensive to buy just for the mg.

Hi
Thanks for the replies very helpful.
Tarok: The Tank mg's look excellent may have to get a couple.
Demchenko : The Zvezda look like the set I saw slightly different box but iam pretty sure they were the ones so i'll see if i can get a set. Theres me thinking they were Dragon.
Grom : I'll need to do a search to see this set
Many thanks
Peter
