Large scale WWII BAR Rifleman

#1 Post by griffin »

Does anyone make a fairly large scale kit of a WW2 BAR rifleman? My father served in Europe with the 28th infantry division. I have some excellent pictures of him with his weapon. He died when I was pretty young so it wasn't till later in my life I connected the stories he told me with historical articles of what he went through. To hear him speak you would think all he did was walk through a lot of French and German countryside.

Another place to try would be Red Lancers in PA -
https://redlancers.com/

They have a pretty extensive catalog to look thru, or you could just email or call the guy, and see if he has the figure you want. HTH.
