Browning M2 aircraft machine Gun Scale 1:48 Metallic Details MDR4888

Metallic Details MDR4888 Detail Set combines photo-etched metal and 3D-printed parts to build two Browning M2 aircraft machine guns in 1/48. The set uses PE parts for thin brackets and fine surfaces, while 3D-printed elements provide the gun body shape.

The Browning M2 is found on many aircraft types and installations, so this is a universal accessory for projects with visible gun mounts, open panels, or turret/bay areas (installation is kit- and layout-dependent).

For modelers: plan how the guns will be displayed before building them—closed panels may hide most of the detail. Assemble and paint the guns as separate subassemblies, then add PE pieces after the main paint to keep edges clean. When fitting into a mount, dry-fit first and adjust the support points so both guns sit at the same height and remain parallel.

FAQ

How many guns are included?

The set is intended to build two Browning M2 machine guns in 1/48 scale using photo-etch and 3D-printed parts.

Is this set specific to one aircraft kit?

No. It is listed as a universal accessory for aircraft model kits. Check your kit’s gun mount dimensions before final installation.

What is the best way to keep both guns aligned?

Dry-fit in the mount first and use a simple spacing guide (a marked ruler or a styrene strip) so both barrels sit parallel and at the same height while the adhesive sets.
