It appears to be the Riich 6 pounder - unfortunately. I was hoping for a new tool and possibly accurate one....

Peter - Hi - I am curious as to why you believe this to be the Riich 6 pounder and not the Bronco one - Richard

I see the British army quad bike with figures is also listed, is it being released or is it still on hold ?

See that Masterclub, another kit that could use a set of those working metal links!

It is written on the box that the 6 pounder is of the Riich

Yes it is on the box. Also Bronco's current kit is the MK III Airbourne carriage version which is not depicted in the box art.

Thanks for pointing that out gents - didn't see that . I built Bronco's airborne gun - which I thought was excellent if not a little fiddley but I thought they made a non - airborne as well. Perhaps I am thinking of AFV club .

I have never managed to find a reliable reference to compare the various kits, curious to hear your views on the accuracy of the Riich gun (or the AFV one for that matter)
