unfortunately /fortunately they specialize in fitting out the 1:72 scale corvettes...and they dont put one out in 1:35 ..i mean its great that someone specializes in this niche,but I agree a 1:35 gun would be cool..the pics dont show the hollowed out barrel end well due to lack of depth of field unfortunately..I dont hink Im happy with the rod coming down from the shoulder rests either ..
