20mm British Internal Security vehicles Part 1

For "Winter of '79" and Ulster use, Sgts Mess models. I picked up a couple of Landrover Snatch's and A Humber Flying Pig with the fold out screens. Easy kits to assemble.
Here is the Snatch assembled
 The Pig comes with solid screens which wasn't what I wanted
Here's a pic of the version I had in mind
Any hoo used the basic dimensions and knocked a couple up out of plasticard, happier with these
On to painting next.

  1. Remember 'em well.
    Tell me this though - is one of those Toms in the pic carrying a slung M16 rather than SLR - or is it a trick of the light?

  2. That soldier has a slung m16a1 , would that be unique in NI ??

  3. Nice looking models - I remember seeing them most nights on the news when I was growing up in the UK during the 70's and 80's - specially the Pigs in Ulster...
