All,

 

I hope I have posted this one in the correct part of the forum ............   Moderators:  apologies if in wrong place but did not know where else to post this one.

 

I normally build WW1 aircraft, but wanted a change in pace.   I have an interest in firearms (I used to have a firearm and shotgun certificate) but mainly in pistols.   I have looked at these kits on and off for ages but finally decided to go for one.   Although 1/3 scale, I was pleasantly surprised at how large the completed model is as I thought they would be much smaller.  Great kit that went together well (if a bit tight in places) with excellent level of detail.  I have a couple more in this series to build at some point - the kit supplied stand allows you to clip together others as one display which is pretty neat.

 

Trumpeter offer this kit as a series of the M16/M4 rifle platform - just a shame they don't do other rifles or even a series of pistols in this scale.

 

Model built OOB and brush painted.
