Not quite the answer you wanted

But Aeroclub Models produce a set of 2 GPMGs (GO28) for about £1.10

ONE?

What is it made of? Platinum? Unicorn-poo? On Aviationmegastore it's listed for 7,52 € that would mean for a Merlin HC.3 I would have to get 3 sets. Thats 22,56 €.

I thought there would be 5 to 10 GPMGs in the set...

Hello,

Without doubt, the best GPMG I've seen in 1/72 plastic comes with the Dragon Challenger sets. They provide 2,  but you only use one on top of the tank, so there might be some spares knocking around in peoples "spares bin".

 Some of the Humvee sets have the US version of the GPMG which are also excellent. You can sometimes pick up the challenger kits for around a fiver (£) which would be cheaper than the airwaves gun. The Aeroclub guns arre a little rough, but in this scale sticking out of a window they would be OK. Good luck.

Hello Stefan,

It looks like you only get the one GPMG in the Trump kits, but it looks pretty good. I wish some manufacturer would release a box of guns as so many include them with their kits. I'm sure they would sell.
