Carnage in the driveway! 1/16 Sherman tanks

 A friend and fellow-R/C tanker came over on Sunday for a battle.  The Germans took a beating.


We battled the forces of evil with two 1/16 Heng Long Sherman tanks.


Regular followers will recognize many of these components from earlier posts, including the Marx trees and soldiers.


The tanks fire 6mm BBs, the same kind used in airsoft guns.  We swept the hill clean save for the three prone guys at the top.


Here's a good before and after.


The guns are very accurate up to fifteen or twenty feet, with a max range of fifty feet.


Though we hit the 88 numerous times, its base was too wide to knock over with the BBs...consequently, I rammed it with my tank, with very satisfying results.

Mission accomplished, and wife wife doesn't care that there are BBs everywhere.

Crank up your tank and...

Soldier on!
