just ordered some, this will put master and aber out of buisness. it will be virtually the same price or cheaper to end up just sliding a barrel into this already black gun and drybrush with a bit on iron paint and you are done. i havent been this excited about an am product in a while. no more photoetch or brass jackets having to be glued on and end up a touch crooked. no more assemby of the aber pe handles. wow. i hope they do them in 1/48 too. this will be the only spandau i use if they are as good as they look.

I, too, may have one or two planes that could use 'em.

Newbie that I am, I wasn't even aware that the Lewis and Vickers are available, let alone the Spandau. As you say, here comes yet another internet order.

Cheers,

   Highly recommended Chris. (Mind blowing quality actually!) PM with some thoughts sent, and I have to order a few pairs of the Spandaus.
