About product

Ammunition of 12.7x99 mm (.50 BMG) caliber in 1:35 scale

An accessory set for 1:35 scale with rounds of 12.7x99 mm caliber, commonly designated the .50 BMG. It is not a kit of a weapon or a vehicle but a small accessory for a finished model — ammunition by the machine gun on a turret, rounds stacked on a fender or scattered on the base of a scene.

The real subject

The 12.7x99 mm round is the standard Western heavy ammunition. The main weapon of this caliber is the American Browning M2 heavy machine gun, or rather its M2HB version, which appears on commander's cupolas and mounts from Second World War vehicles to the present day — from Shermans through the M48 and M60 to the Abrams and light wheeled vehicles. The same caliber was also used in the Second World War in the armament of American fighters. It differs from the Soviet 12.7x108 mm caliber in its shorter case and is not interchangeable with it.

Building and painting tips

The material of the package is not stated here, so choose the glue according to what is in the set: solvent cement for plastic, cyanoacrylate for resin and metal. Wash resin castings in warm soapy water first, so that they are rid of any mold release residue. A brass shade suits the cases and a darker metal the bullets; a fine wash will even the sharp transitions out and at the same time settle the shadow between the rounds. Belts of rounds look best when you give them a slight sag and set the metal links apart from the cases. At the end add a little dust pigment, so that the ammunition fits in with the rest of the model.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of American and allied vehicles in 1:35 scale
  • Dioramas with a machine-gun crew and ammunition replenishment
  • Modelers who replace the coarse plastic parts from a kit
  • Display scenes where the ammunition is seen from close up

The set is supplied unpainted and is not a model on its own. Glue, paints and the base kit are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is the commercial and military designation of the same round whose metric form is 12.7x99 mm. It is one and the same caliber.

It is not. The 12.7x108 mm caliber is Soviet and has a longer case. For a model of an Eastern vehicle reach for that one, for a Western one for this set.

No, it is the ammunition alone as an accessory. Neither the machine gun nor a vehicle is included in the package.

The number of pieces is not stated here. Check the quantity on the box of the set if you are building a scene with a particular number.
