Does anyone make a 1/35 Para SAW, or could sell me one separately? I heard that New World Miniature's SAW Gunner supposedly had one, but couldn't verify that claim.

Thanks.

Hi,

i have the NWM SAW Gunner and it is not the para SAW Version. There is only an optical sight on it but the rest is the standard M249 with more modern butt stock. The only aviable Para SAW Version i know is from Tank Models.

Product Number: A-50 M249 SAV U.S. modern M.G. / You get only three Waepons.

Here is the link Tank-Models
catalog A - page 3

It´s not perfectly correct and with all modern ajustment but an improvment. The optical sight is more vietnam era in my opinion but i´m not sure. Hope it helps you. I would wait for the weapons line from Trumpeter. Perhaps they bring out these kiind of weapon. I know that in one of their new Figure sets is an para saw visible on the box cover in the hand of one Figure.

Tank makes one, Hobby fan and Pro Art models have them in the DPV and Dummvee kit, but both are moulded with the mounting on it. I have made my own version, it's not hard to do

Thanks, guys. Stefan, the link doesn't work. I know some online sellers of TANK, but never saw any photos of the Para SAW from TANK.
