Pretty self explanatory, actually. Starting to push through my backlog of Modern 1/35 armor kits and a lot of these cupola machine guns need some aftermarket love. Suggestions would be most welcomed.

take a look

i got myself an voyagermodel one, the barrel looks pretty good only the .50housing i got with the set was rubbish

I have a couple RB barrel sets, and am very pleased with them. Kit has brass barrel and separate perforated guard, wire changing handle, cocking and gunner's handles (PE + formed resin? "wood" grips), some other PE bits. SHARP-looking.

I think they are actually very similar to some of the "bigger name" kits, but cost less.

You will need a good receiver / action and mount on hand- this is a barrel-and-grips kit.

This kit is probably best suited to WWII - Korea - VN era "ma deuce" guns, as on tanks, trucks, and ground use. (Certes current for the M2 I used back in SE.A...) I am not sure about some of the detail differences between those guns and the newest used on current vehicles- but my guess is these kits would do most of it, seeing as the gun is still mostly the same???

Cheers! Bob

Matt;

A follow-up on my previous post to you ref the 0.50 cal MG barrels...

The RB kit I have (and recommend) is the 35B13 kit. And I spoke hastily when I claimed the handles were resin. Actually the kit is all turned brass and PE bits. Barrel, guard, handles, sights.

Cheers!

Bob

I also suggest the RB offering as it will be hard to beat on price for what it contains.
