Mechanical Model Rifle Kit
A mechanical rifle in wood, built for a shelf, not a hand.
$34.99
The subject is familiar from film and history; the version here is a mechanism you put together yourself. What justifies the effort is the working action — separate pieces moving against one another because you placed them in the right relationship.
Treat it as a model throughout. It comes together slowly, the moving sections want patience, and the finished object belongs upright on a shelf rather than in anybody's hands.
- For mechanically minded adults and collectors of military history.
- For evenings of careful work, with the parts tray kept tidy.
- On a study shelf, up high, out of reach of children.
- Illustrated English assembly guide
- Spare parts sheet included
- Recommended for ages 14+
Who this one is for
A working mechanism rather than a copy of one particular rifle. It suits a builder who is more interested in how the action goes together than in which pattern it imitates.
Choosing between the Mechanical Model kits
At $34.99 it is the least expensive of the three and the least specific. If you want the recognisable silhouette instead, the AK47 ($44.99) is the one visitors point at.
