1:8 model 7" Brooke
« on: May 17, 2014, 11:52:22 AM »
Selma Hunter turned me onto a friend of his who builds museum quality scale models and yesterday I took delivery of S10 (divided by 8).



Naturally we had to try it out.  The bore is 7/8".  Here we are sending a round down range:

Wow, what a really nice model.  Really well detailed.  From your video it really looks powerful for such a small gun.
Best,
Carl

Wow is right Carl, it does look like it packs a good punch. Great looking scale model Mike.
