Like it. Where do the guns come from ? Yourself ?

shaun from s and s models12 Feb 2013 11:51 a.m. PST

thanks for the commnets,
the guns are from the s&s models range, both brand new castings to be released this year.
a west german 20mm a/a gun and a ww2 type 20mm oelikon on pintle mount.

Very nice. I've got a battery powered, toy, fire rescue boat (from Toy's R Us) that I'm going to convert and repaint for war. It even comes with pintle mounted guns on the fore and aft decks.
