Eduard continues to amaze me with the detail sets that they turn
out. Double that when you consider the revolutionary color photo-etch
process they're using now. This detail set provides the all-essential
ammo boxes for the 30 caliber machine gun.
This is one of Eduard's color-photo-etch sets. As part of their
Zoom line, this set is also inexpensive and simple to use. The
colored parts are the three ammo boxes which are pre-colored in
OD Green and feature the standard ammo identification stenciling
on the side of the boxes.
In addition to the three boxes, the set also includes two feed
adapters that align the ammo as it comes out of the box and into
the side-feed of the gun. The set also comes with two styles of
ammo can cradles.
At $7.95 MSRP, this is an inexpensive way to dress up your tank
commander's machine gun or perhaps the gun or gun ring installation
of the 30 caliber machine gun. Either way, all you'll need are
the ammo belts which are also available from Eduard in another
Zoom detail set.
This set is definitely recommended!
My sincere thanks to Eduard for this review sample!
