Has anyone attempted to make the AG M/42?

To my knowledge no AG M/42 was made in GB.

Vickers Machine Gun (1912 Pattern)



Vickers Machine Gun on Mark IV Tripod (1912 Pattern)

Here she is, the Queen of Battle of the Great War, the reaper of No Man's Land, the ultimate development of the Maxim gun. The Vickers. Definitely the most iconic weapon I've drawn to date, it is synonymous with World War 1 and the slaughter of trench warfare. Virtually indestructible by mechanical means, these guns would fire for days and nights on end, consuming ammunition, water and men alike. The weapon in various forms served nearly 60 years from 1912 to 1968, and has never been surpassed in reliability and the sheer ability to endlessly put lead downrange of the operator. So I went all out on the drawing to pay proper respects to a weapon of such immense prowess.

Also, AG M/42 is now on my to-do list thank you for bringing it to my attention.

Oh, my God! I just finished my version just few minutes ago!


Your bronze parts looks terrific, Scootia! And your shading is astonishing fine (so fine that I am borrowing some ideas for my own version)!

This must be a first in the history of SB or something. Though me being new around here, probably somebody else remembers a similar instance. By the way great job you both, on a big and impressive drawing.

In my case, Gran Colombia is guilty (but in .30-06)!!!

I enjoy a lot looking the differences in approaches (and also differences in details of the production models). And probably I will "steal" some ideas in shading!


PS: In a definitive way, Scootia's soldiers are much more neat, tidy and clean than mines! The bronze is shining!!!

Great additions!

Good evening, guys.

Here a classical pistol of the interwar period: FN Browning Model 1910/1922:


The design arose from an order from the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Eslovens (later Yugoslavia) in 1922. It was in chambered 7.65 x 17 mm (.32 ACP). It was based in the shorter Model 1910 of the same caliber.
It was used by many countries until after the end of WWII. During the war, the Model 1922 was used by the Wehrmacht as P626(b) and was well liked. The first blocks under german rule were of fair quality, but as the war progresed, the finish was more warlike and somewhat crude. Cheers.

Nice work!
