JetJockGB,
I hate to disappoint you, but that's a 1919A4 30 Cal. with spade grips made to shoot 22 LR bullets. You can see a 50 Cal M2HB if you look at the one on my 1943 M3A1 Scout Car in my gallery here on RCU. You will be shocked when you find out what the price is of that 22 LR spitter. Have a great Thanksgiving.

Neat looking, would you use it for hunting squirrels? A bit big for my B17's!

That's a (working) model of a Browning Light 30 cal; I carried one in the Marines. It's firing .17 Mach II rounds, which is a 22LR shell case necked down to .17. Neat round and a lot of fun to shoot, but I don't have a mini Light 30! Wonder what one of those puppies costs?

That is just too COOL! Two of those through the prop of a 1/5 Buffalo. Maybe just some noise makers instead of .17 rounds.

Hi All,

Yes, these are very cool,I'm not sure how much this one is,I think it's just a one off but going by some of the others that are available it's going to be rather dear,I have attached a pic a 30 cal Browning and this is $4,500.00[X(]Or how about a 1/4 scale Thompson at $1,775.00

Here is the link: http://waynedriskillminiatures.com/_wsn/page7.html

If you are really interested in fitting Mini Cannon,I do sell the Blank firing Micro cannon through Tigermodels,
This is priced a bit better than the ones above at £410.00
The micro cannon holds 40 rounds and fires between 2-18 shots a second.
I have attached some pics to give you an idea of what our Mg is like.

Cheers Graham.

Full auto firearms are VERY expensive, no matter what caliber or scale they are. While one may own a full auto gun in various states, there are those states that ban full auto ownership with few exceptions. I do believe it would be cool to have an option on an R/C simulator to shoot guns in aerial dogfights and drop bombs on impending targets from an R/C from the ground view. This would prove to be a difficult task with depth perception abilities. Making a difficult task even more difficult, try building a Warbird to include scale gun compartments in the wings with opening hatches and gun mounts. Sure, it can be done, but is it worth the effort if the plane is going to be flown regularly. I am a member of the Commemorative Air Force and have seen the "Innards" to many real WWII aircraft. A BT-13 with the skin off reveales a complex system of pullies, levers and wires to make the control surfaces work. I have been contemplating a large BT-13 with scale linkages and hook ups, but after all that work and investment of time and money, would it be worth flying it? I suppose it depends on the point of view and intestinal fortitude available at the time.
