Thought I would try out my new German Artillery Gun in my Normandy Bunker. Seems to work pretty well.

How did the gunners get this gun into the bunker??

Its not a mountain gun where you can strip it apart and carry it it..... :(

Still it does look good, and I'd be accused of being a 'rivet counter' if I say anymore.....

Well Done for showing more gunner and guns,

I love that :) :)

How about from the front of the bunker. More than a 3 man job though. !
 
Great dio and I just assumed they 'drafted' some locals to get the gun into the bunker (not to mention build the bunker).

I would imagine it would take 6-8 men to move it into position from the front if it were a real but possible scenario. This gun is one of my favorites that I have in 1/30 scale !

I agree, I just wish Figarti's first release of this gun would've included the towing gear/caisson.

Love the gun, but the soldiers loading it??? that's another story...Sammy
 
Agree, they look toy like in thier painting. Not as crisp as TGM IMHO.

The soldier with the loading rod is the worst out of the 3............{sm2} OK so I would rate the gun itself a 10 out of 10 and the soldiers a 7 out of 10.
 
Thanks Jack, You mean you are not going to ask how the gun got into the bunker ^&confuse .............{sm3}

I see the Jerries have mastered the art of pre-fab concrete construction! :rolleyes2:^&grin Im with Jack, very well done and have you thought about getting the AK version PA?

No, I picked the gray version as my favorite. To me this gun in the gray looks classy :wink2: Plus I have other Normandy and AK Arty from K&C and CS.
