| What a gorgeous piece!
Decent machineguns are very hard to come by in our scale,
particularly the Browning .30cal model 1919. As you can
see in the Browning .30cal Comparison Article, we don't have a lot to choose
from, and most of the plastic examples are mediocre at
best. The gun presented here from Mini World is
fantastic, and I'll just let the following scans speak
for themselves. Apologies for not getting a better shot
of the tip of the barrel, but as you can barely make out,
there is a small depression for the opening. As you can
see in the instructions, assembly of the photoetched bits
is going to be quite a challenge with these miniscule
parts. Based on specifications I found on-line, the
overall length of this piece looks to be almost perfect.
