I know Peter Pig has separate driver, gun crews, and seated figures for vehicles. Does anyone provide separate vehicle mounted weapons, i.e. machine guns?

Peter Pig also makes 30 and 50 cal MGs in vehicle mounts.

Where, I looked through the catalog, are they special order? I mean MGs separate from the model, y'know extra ones. They say they don't provide drivers or tank commanders with the models but they can be purchased separately. No problem with a little good old fashioned free market capitalism. I'd kinda like to stick a Bren in a "Bren Gun Carrier", maybe a .30 cal water cooled on a Bedford, or use them on other models.

They are separate, for vehicles, and a regular part of their catalog.

Scroll down to items #74 50 cal for vehicles and #197 30 cal on mounts.

Aaah, there they are, little dickens were hiding on me. I was looking in the British vehicles section for Vickers, Brens, and Lewis guns. They show a very nice Vickers "K" mounted on a Humber Armored Car #169, I was wondering if there is a possibility that the machine gun and mount might be available separately as I am planning to build early war/desert war British armored and infantry units.

Thanks

Battlefront/Flames of War used to do some excellent vehicle weapons packs but you'd have to check (their online store isn't as good as it used to be) … Skytrex also do/did MGs packs.
