With a Jack Maston head and a scarf, you can pretty much make Jack Marston with Arthur and John parts. (John's pants, John or Arthur's hat, Arthur's tan coat)

A Volcanic Repeater would be good.

Owing to its suggestive name it's usually a powerful weapon in games, but in reality it was "fairly pathetic".

While this design led to important developments, it was not actually a commercial success: while Volcanic weapons had superior capacity to an equivalent-sized revolver, the tiny powder charge that would actually fit in a Rocket Ball or Volcanic Ball led to fairly pathetic muzzle energy in the region of 56 foot-pounds, less than a modern .25 ACP round. The pistol versions were also very large and bulky compared to revolvers, and it was difficult to operate them without using both hands.

Nevertheless it's an interesting design and would be welcome in 1/6.


RDR's 1911 time period makes it a useful source for a variety of early and contemporary firearms. I never used to be a fan of late westerns but they've grown on me with The Professionals, The Wild Bunch, Joe Kidd, 100 Rifles, and even the 1923 series.

Death Hunt's in the list too, but that's a really late one, being set in 1931/1932.

My VTS Arthur in his winter coat and coonskin cap gave me Death Hunt vibes as soon as I put him together.
