Bring up that .50 cal, now!
The beloved Browning .50 calibre heavy machine gun would see extensive service with US forces throughout the Second World War – the Airborne Divisions were no exception! Rugged, reliable, and capable of dealing with enemy infantry, aircraft, and light vehicles, it remains in service to this day across the world. American forces in WWII used the ‘.50 cal’ in huge numbers, with the weapons proving a huge boon to US troops in need of immediate direct fire support.
HMGs are seriously useful bits of kit in Bolt Action: Third Edition, and with the Americans being their most significant user, no US force is complete without at least one team! Able to take out even the toughest infantry, and a very real threat to soft-skin and lightly armoured vehicles, they’re a mainstay of Heavy Weapons Platoons in American armies. With US Airborne forces relatively light on big guns, this HMG with its winter-clad crew will be a welcome addition to any Battle of the Bulge-themed army!
Get that gun working!
This blister contains one metal heavy machine gun with four resin US Airborne (winter) crew, and plastic base.
