WW2 Artillery without crew?
« on: 16 July 2016, 06:48:09 PM »
Do y'all mind pointing me at manufacturers that do 28mm scale artillery, preferably French or German, without crew included?  I have models I wish to use for crew, so all I need are the guns, but I am having some trouble finding, say, French 75s, or 1913 Schneiders, or even a 47mm MLE to use without paying extra for crew that I don't want or need.  US manufacturers would be preferred, due to postage, but I'm willing to look further afield.

For the 47mm, is this the one you're looking for ? http://neucraftmodels.com/product-category/1_56_28mm/french-tanks-1_56-28mm/ They also have an eBay shop i think.

And for the Schneider : http://www.madbobminiatures.co.uk/shop/4587330663/canon-de-105-mle-1913/9065401

Oh, for crying out loud - I *just* ordered a Renault from Neucraft Thursday, and I never saw that he had artillery. My luck some days...

Those are two of the ones I was looking for, though.  Are there any other options - shipping from England can be rough...

I have 2 warlord 75mm without crew , but postage will be a killer  :?

for the 75mm in the USA, you can try askari minis ...

Dans les situations critiques, quand on parle avec un calibre bien en pogne, personne ne conteste plus. Y'a des statistiques là-dessus.

Yeah, that is the thing, otherwise I would probably jump all over that offer.

Update!

I picked up two of the guns from Neucraft, and they are in my Weird War thread here: http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=92143.0

Kevin actually saw this thread, and emailed me to ask if I wanted to add the guns to my order, before he shipped!  Now *that* is customer service!  Beautiful kits as well.  I definitely recommend his models.
