    Osprey tail gate gun?

    I'm about to start my Osprey build but having watched loads of videos for reference I have noticed the ones deployed have a rear gun on the ramp, the kit version is missing this so, anyone able to tell me if I can buy one separately? I've done a search and can't see any add ons that I can buy, so I was thinking perhaps I could get a 1:48th gun and build a mount for it?

    What kind of gun is it? Is it a similar fitting like the ramp mounted M60 on RAF Chinooks? There is a 1/72 scale GPMG and pintle for Puma HC1 and Seaking HC4 on Hannant's website so there may be a 1/48 scale version too.

    Worth a look.
    On the bench: Airfix 1/48 Sea King HC4, Revell 1/24 Trabant.
    Coming soon: Airfix 1/72 Phantom FGR2.
    Just finished: Airfix 1/48 Stuka & Airfix 1/72 Sea King HC4.
