About product

The British .303 caliber as a belt of ammunition, 1:48 scale

A separately made belt of .303 rounds from the 3DF brand. It comes into its own on aircraft models in 1:48 scale wherever the weapon space can be looked into. Neither a model of the aircraft nor the machine gun itself is part of the item; it is an addition to a build already under way.

The caliber that marked British aviation

The .303 designation belongs to the British rifle cartridge fired by Browning machine guns and by the flexible weapons of fuselage positions. The British fighters of the late 1930s built their firepower on the number of barrels rather than on the caliber itself, and the same ammunition stayed in the defensive turrets of bombers long afterwards. Belts led to it from roomy boxes in the wings and in the fuselage.

What to watch out for when fitting it

The space around the weapon tends to be only suggested in plastic, so first check how much room the belt will actually get and only then deal with its shape. Let it follow a smooth curve; a sharp kink gives the artificiality away at once. Keep the shade of the links cooler than the shade of the cases and finish with dark accentuation, which deepens the gaps between the parts. Meanwhile it is better to protect the clear parts of the build around the weapon space; nobody enjoys polishing scratched glazing afterwards.

Who this part will serve

  • For modelers of British and Allied machines
  • For builds with an exposed weapon bay in the wing
  • For the defensive positions of fuselage weapons
  • For anyone bothered by empty space beside a machine gun

FAQ

It is a British rifle caliber fired by Browning aircraft machine guns and by flexible fuselage weapons.

No, the item is the ammunition. You take the weapon itself from the base kit or from another set.

Let the belt follow a smooth curve; a sharp kink looks artificial even at a casual glance.
