Wow Chris, theres nothing wrong with them, superb work
last shot here an im fairly dissappiont with my efforts as yes the guns will elevate but the brass gun barrells are not
heavy enough to get the guns to gome back down so i will just have to use the ole mark one finger to push the guns back down but nr every thing went wrong building this an one of the tiny one mm leds has packed up too very dissappionted but now anyway cant do any more till i get the gunfire sound unit so these guns are on hold
