United Kingdom Riflemen


The Vickers MG is from the UK Desert H/W blister which is not available -yet?! - for Western Europe. Pants were added, as well as a water can and hose. Empty shells added under the gun from fine brass rod cut into 1mm lengths but the pic only shows them a little - too bad - they look good. Loader is converted from the 2" (51mm) mortar crew in the UK H/W Blister.






Mortar and Crew created with the great mold of the mortar from the UK 8th Army H/W blister.

There is a molded-on crewman that needs a wardrobe change by adding some pants with a bit of bondo. The loader is the grenade thrower; arms bent to his ear. The 3rd crewman is the NVA crewman with his slouch hat formed into a British helmet and a Leather Jerkin carved from his jacket.





Ammo crates added from plastic stock and 3-round case made from brass rod.
