Title: Blunderbuss
Post by: Conquistador on September 20, 2016, 03:00:13 AM
I have need of a source for a 25/28mm blunderbuss for an IHMN game this November and would appreciate any pointers to such sources.

Or a tutorial in how to make one...

They were widely available from the old Warhammer Fantasy Free Company sprue - how many you need?

Never tried it myself, but I've had 15mm cannon recommended to me for use as 28mm blunderbusses!

Seems like an awful lot of conversion work to me, but there we go!

If you absolutely positively feel an overwhelming urge to convert, I wonder how hard or easy it would be to use these as your starting point:

Let me look through my weapons bits. I think I have some of those as part of a big batch of weapons I bought some time ago.

Thanks to all who looked/went searching.  Off topic slightly, I just discovered a case of what I think is Battletech Infantry (Kurita?) and H&R WW1 infantry (SF is forgiving) that I had forgotten I had in the basement.   lol

You're welcome.  Sorry, the company envelope was all I had!  But use it well, laddie.
