Default VQ P-38 MACHINE GUNS

A word to the wise for the VQ P-38 owners who want to get the VQ machine guns. I bought the P-38 machine guns and found them to be very brittle, as they keep breaking off. The slightest bump or contact with anything and they snap. I managed to remove them by drilling them out of the nose and made my own guns out of brass tubing. They look just as good and don't break. A lousy choice of materials for these guns, as well as a waste of $16.00. DON'T GO THERE!! [&o][][>:][:@][:'(]

Dear Bob,

The machine guns that you refer to is made from molded plastic and will break if flexed beyond a certain point. I have include two pictures of the flexibilty of the guns. the first one is stationary and the second one is flexed 3/4" beyond center with out breaking.
