Hi all,
I have a question. Does anyone know who has a 1/35 scale, reasonably priced, watercooled vickers .303 machine gun.
See normally I am not into allied stuff, but a good friend asked me to build a universal (bren) carrier. I am going to use the Tamiya one. And I need a vickers .303 to go on to it. It should end up a bit like this:
Any suggestions?

I think Resicast is the only option, apart from scratchbuilding.

If i'm right i think Resicast actually used to do a conversion for this type of carrier.

Hmm, ok I already contacted Mol (I order there no and again, excellent service), if that is no, no, I'll try Historex (shopped there also, but in real live, not online).
Thanks all you guys for the help.
