Yup, as kids making models was almost a religion, and it was an endless pursuit. My dad was a bomber pilot right into airlines as the war ended and we were literally all about aviation.
The reason I went with the 1/72 scale is that they were so small so didnt take much room.
Getting back to the machine guns, as expected hard to find, most around are the unshielded ground use types, but still horrendously expensive. The fact that this man had gotten these many years back when such things were still around (like so many things).
