Youse right bruv. Innit? ;)
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

The accents on Teeside is pretty impenetrable, it is like they phased in from a separate continuum.

That Saladin looks great.

How do the wheels attach on the Saladin. I have dry assembled the HLBSCo Ferret (bought from you rather an embarrassingly long time ago) and the axle system is great.

The HLBSCo BRDM wheel attachments were less good - hopefully when you reintroduce them they will be improved.

So now the Saladin is in play, will there be some Aussie hardware (FSV, APC etc.) for Vietnam?

Yep, I have traveled all across the US, Australia, Canada and to London. And the worst accents I ran into so far in the US were from backwords Louisiana, and Massachusetts/Boston.
No problem with the Canucks or Auzzes I have met. But I know for a fact lots of the kids I met in London were not speaking any version of English I have ever heard before.  lol

I work for an American company and used to spend a lot of time in Morgan city. The Louisiana accent is a hard one too follow. But after a while you tune into it and appreciate it.

Hmm.  Land Rovers.  Hmm.  I have a couple Defenders, but my African forces could use something with a little firepower.  Waiting to see what you guys come up with, Paul...

Re: [COMMERCIAL] Empress SARACEN released.

One of my personal favourites as they were every where when I was young.

We have just released a 28mm - 1/48 scale Saracen Armoured Car.

The SARACEN was in service from 1952 until the present day.

Used by many countries and was a very common sight in Northern Ireland during the troubles.

Best looking APC ever and oh so tempting. Is the Fox anywhere close on the update list?

Very nice, added to my 'wish list'.

Anyone know of a source for .30 cal Brownings in 28mm?

Hauler do them in resin in 1/48 as well as brass etched ammo belts and ammo boxes.

There’s also an aftermarket company called GasPatch who do insanely detailed resin .30 cals. 

https://www.bnamodelworld.com/parts-decals-for-aircraft-1:48-gaspatch-models-gas16-48101?zenid=70c3c40aad3909271675fa183ae12185

If you feel up to making your own receiver (basically an oblong) then Aber make .30 barrels and barrel shrouds in 1/48.

I’ve been fortunate enough to have had Nic at Eureka let me rummage through the weapons boxes so I have picked up a few 1/56 versions in the past. If you want 1/56 ask around for anyone with Rubicon Allied kits, many have an abundance of .30 cals, the LVTs in particular. Hell, you could even justify one to go with your late war Scots.
