Well it says they are FNs and the short barrel and flash suppressor style look like FNs but the angle of the butt plate is wrong whether it is an FN or SLR it should be nearly flat on to the shoulder and not at such an angle

Have to agree with everybody. Those butts are way off!
They need to be rectified before they go on sale.
However, I have to say it's about time somebody covered the Falklands war. There is virtually nothing on offer in 1/35th from that campaign.
What we need are more figures, more kit, more weapons!
What do you guys think of the British rucksacks & other gear that are on offer from Blackdog?

Joe.

Could do with more ammo pouches and "bum rolls".but if they update the SLR's or include a stirling or two I'd order a couple of sets.
