Hey guys. I'm working on a diorama and I need a good M60 machine gun in 1/35. Any suggestions? Who produces a good version of the hog? Even if I have to buy a figure to get the gun... Thanks

I like the Dragon/DML versions that come with many of their Vietnam-Desert Storm figure kits and are available in the Modern machine Gun set and Vietnam Weapons set.

Here's a good resin one:
Resin M60
I thought Live Resin may have made one but couldn't find one in their catalog.

Dragon make the best plastic M-60, the resin tank M-60 is just a copy of the dragon, I don't know how good the plus model one is.

Thanks troops. It appears that the Dragon weapons sets are out-of-stock in all of the 'regular' retailers on the Internet. I'll keep searching for them and the Dragon figure sets.

Spruebrothers is listing the Modern Machine Gun set as in stock.


You get two of each gun on the cover.

They also list The Marines at Khe Sahn as in stock.

Thanks. I ordered it from Sprubrothers. My first time with them. Hope they're on-the-ball.

The Tank M-60 is available from Military Miniatures Warehouse. John is an excellent dealer with very fast (typically 3-4 days) delivery from the time you order. It comes six to a pack with separate 2 piece bipod for $6.99 plus shipping.
