A few of the named items used to be (secretly) available in brass from Cal-scale Model Castings. That firm sold off the line to another located near Sacramento Calif. The new fellow was showing off the line up at a convention about three years ago. I can remember 50 Cal. machine gun barrels, and some antenna on the felt poster board. He had them in 5 different scales. In talking to him, he mentioned they were just experimental to see if there was a market out there for such items. The work on the rubber molds had been done in the 1960's and the new parts were pulled from those. They all needed new rubber for any sort of production. The castings were going to be known as former Cal-scale, but not brought out under that title specifically. I had his business card up until about two years ago.
