Hi guys new scratchbuilt railgun , while building this latest railgun I came across few pics on internet of this railgun the day after d day after bombing raids being looked over by a couple of Americans  at Cherbourg peninsular.  .


these guns were placed in round pits on turntables with bunkers all round but amazingly not much damaged done to guns ,and as I did not want a lot of damage to my gun I just bent a few of the handrails .

Fantastic build Barry, looking at the photo references, you've achieved the scene nicely.

Thanks jim,


The shells are resin, the used cases are plastic tubes with rims added.
