I’m pleased to announce that Gunslinger has launched its latest project onto Kickstarter earlier today and it is already funded! Gunslinger SOG “Across the Fence” takes the Gunslinger ethos and brings it back to the Vietnam War, rolling out a uniquely detailed and posed range ideal for both wargaming and display. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Across the Fence” focuses on the work of MACV-SOG, operating along the Ho Chi Minh trail. Deploying in small groups into the depths of the jungle, SOG teams played cat and mouse against the dedicated hunters of the Tr\u01b0\u1eddng S\u01a1n Hunter-Killer Teams. I’ve included some details below, as well as some of the fantastic figures painted by Bing Lim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To represent\u00a0MACV-SOG Recon teams<\/strong>\u00a0we have chosen late \u201867 as the inspiration, when the unit first received the shortened XM-177 (CAR-15) carbine. The\u00a0ten-model range\u00a0comprises commandos from both the US and the Indigenous groups armed with the new carbine alongside more specialised weapons such as Type-56 assault rifles, RPD machine guns and an array of grenade launchers, LAWs and grenades. All team members are dressed for venturing into the jungle, laden down with all the equipment and gear they may need for extended patrols.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Future stretch goals will see this range expanded to include operatives equipped with an arsenal more commonly found pre-1967 (including the Swedish-K, the Thompson, the Sterling, and the M1 carbine among others.)\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\nKickstarter Description<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

To represent the\u00a0Tr\u01b0\u1eddng S\u01a1n Hunter-Killer teams<\/strong>\u00a0we have chosen to represent commandos armed with Type-56 assault rifles, the ubiquitous SKS rifle, RPD machine guns and the B41 rocket-propelled grenade launcher, along with an assortment of Chicom grenades and other equipment commonly found in the arsenal of the PAVN (Peoples Army of Vietnam<\/strong>) forces. Future stretch goals will see this range expanded to include commandos armed with a wider array of weapons (Such as the PPSH, the MAT-49, the SVD, and the Mauser sniper rifle among others.)\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Tr\u01b0\u1eddng S\u01a1n Hunter-Killer team comprises a\u00a0twelve-model\u00a0unit – it is split into\u00a0three-cells of three-men\u00a0in PAVN uniforms\/equipment and a\u00a0three-man\u00a0cell of MFVC (Main Force Viet Cong<\/strong>) who would commonly accompany the northern commandos to aid in the training of, and lend their expertise with regards to local and regional knowledge and the general lay of the land.<\/em><\/p>\nKickstarter Description<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

If you want to join in and start helping to crank through those stretch goals, you can join the Kickstarter at https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/flytrapfactory\/gunslinger-sog<\/a>. Additionally, if you join within the first 24 hours of launch (aka before 5 pm GMT on the 16th of November 2023) you’ll be able to get the entire collection for a significant saving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
