M134 Minni Gun Photos???
Posted by wooty on Friday, September 3, 2004 1:16 AM
Hey just wondering if anyone of you guys out there have any photos of the M134 Minni Gun? I can't find any pictures of them anywhere. I need a few for reference for a MH-60L that i am making!!!!
Thanks in advance,

Great Thanks Heaps Dragonfire,
I've seen all but the second picture there but it gives a clearer detail than anyother picture i have seen. Just what i was looking for,Whats the most common color for the minni guns on MH's?
Thanks Again

Not sure on the color. A crew chief on the MH would be a good source.

The mini-gun itself would be gunmetal, same as any weapon, ammo chutes usually are aium., mounts etc. would depend on unit or manufacteror.

Thanks Dragonfire,
It all makes it alot clearer now, just one more thing if anyone there knows the best way to detail the interior ( troop cabin) of the MH-60L cause the MRC 1/35 kit is very plain!!!????
Thanks also to you Grandaddy was'nt to sure on the color of it! but now i should be right to go ahead with it!
Thanks Again Fellas

Best bet for the interior I can give you would be to check out Squadron's "In Action & Walk Around" books, also maybe someone out there has some photo's they could share with you.
Glad to help when I can.

Eduard make both and interior and exterior photo etched sets. I have not used them, but have seen them on models and they look great.

These are links to the photo etched set HeavyArty was talking about, you will find picrues and the instruction leaflet for download:

http://www.eduard.cz/./products/card.php?id_product=2185&name=uh-60&catalogue_nb=&type=&pgroup=&scale=&product_month=&product_year=&page_start=0

They are meant for the UH-60 and not for the MH-60 so you won't find parts to detail the miniguns.
