TomcatFanatic123 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I've been debating the Minicraft 1/144 BUFF, but the tail gun issue is hanging me up a bit. It says right on the box that it is the current version, and the decal options give (if I recall correctly) OEF 20th BS LA-coded airframes based out of Barksdale. The profiles on the side of the box seem to show them with a tail gun, but I can't be 100% sure. I'd love to do a modern BUFF, but I also don't want to have to do surgery to eliminate that tail gun like the Revell kit had you do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) From the pics I just googled, it looks like the guns have been removed ... There looks to be a "stinger" antenna just under where the guns were mounted .. >>> Click <<< HTH... -Gregg Edited May 7, 2016 by GreyGhost Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know the tail guns were long gone by 2001. I Googled it and could only come up with images of the one kit with the old school silver and white scheme. Thank you for taking the time to look, though.
