1/48 scale AM Spandau recommendations
« on: January 09, 2013, 01:57:48 AM »
Hi all!

I looking for a pair of after market Spandau's for my current Roland D-VIb build. I was looking at buying the Karaya's because they have pre-rolled jackets.

Looking for some feedback from and members that has used them as to their thoughts on the quality and ease of assembly.

Thanks all for your input!

Chuck

Hey, Chuck.  I love the Karaya Spandaus and use them often.  I like the Master jackets and barrels even better, but haven't used them yet.
Cheers,
Bud

Thanks for the info Bud.  :)

I need the entire gun. The masters IIRC only have the jacket and barrel, where as the Karaya have the complete gun.
