Hello,

I've got a huge collection of ACW artillery crew made up of Battle Honors & OG15s. I have no where near enough gun models for them.

Anyone know brands of guns that will look decent with those two brands of crew?

Budget is somewhat of a concern since buying gun models for $2 USD-2.50 is impractical when you can buy guns with crew for the same money, that and I need something like 75 guns.

Recommendations?

Cheers,

The Bandit

Wow, that's a lot of guns. I would keep an eye on ebay for some deals on unpainted guns. Other than that, I would get Stone Mountain or Musket Miniatures guns. They are in my opinion the best 15mm guns. You used to be able to buy them separately.

For those kinda numbers you could contact the manufacturer of your choice about a rebate?

I agree with FireZouave completely… and yes you can buy the guns seperately from Musket Miniatures for sure. I replaced most of my guns with Musket Miniature guns. You can also buy seperate gun barrels from Musket Miniatures too!

I agree. After all these years, Stone Mountain guns are still my favorite. To an extent, so are Musket Miniatures.

You could probably contact either of them and ask about a special run to make just guns.

A few years back I contacted Old Glory about casting up a run of just flag bearers. He was very obliging and we worked out a good deal. I have no doubt other manufacturers would do the same.
