Hi guys,
I am looking for the above guns for my 1/18 scale Army jeep. Does anyone make them?
Please advise.
Victor

Victor,

Some years ago, 21st Century Toys -- I think they're out of business now -- made a number of different WWII military items in several scales, one of which was 1/18th.

My son used to have some of these items, and in fact now that he's grown, I have one of their very accurately-rendered 1/18th scale WWII jeeps, salvaged from his old toy box, sitting on the shelf above the computer I'm writing this on.

I think the jeep originally came with a .30 caliber machine gun (long gone now), and I believe 21st Century also made a 1/18th scale Sherman tank, which had a .50 caliber machine gun.

You might want to check eBay for these items, which you may possibly find either with the original items, or in bits and pieces (loose).

Hi Victor,
Get on e-bay and search 1/18 21st Century Toys and 1/18 Ultimate Soldier. There is a ton of stuff available from soldiers to Army vehicles and all types of aircraft. The crew of the PT 623 was drafted into the Navy from these guys and I now have enough 1/18 Japanese Marines to fill my soon to be complete (and next target) Daihatsu barge.
