This resin and photo etch set from Eduard is part of the Brassin series and is available directly from Eduard Model Accessories. This set includes two MG-14 Parabellum WW1 Guns in 1/48 scale. The Parabellum MG14 was a 7.9 mm caliber World War I machine gun built by Deutsche Waffen and Munitionsfabriken and intended for use on aircraft and zeppelins.
These guns have a photo etch cooling jacket on the barrel which gives an excellent level of detail. The gun sight is photo etch as is the trigger to complete all teh tiny details on these guns. There are 2 pages of instruction in the usual line drawing format that Eduard is famous for and which are so easy to follow. A painting guide is included in the instructions. You will be required to fold the photoetch in this set, but if you have one of the Hold & Fold photo etch benders from The Small Shop, then this will be an easy process. They have a variety of benders for sharp corners as well as rounded corners and in many different sizes. The MG-14 Parabellum was a popular gun during WW1 and this set gives you 2 guns that will be a big improvement over any plastic kit guns.
