If you don't want to assemble it you can always get the pre-built version.

Not however the "largest" gun in the world.
The German V3 held that distinction at the time, I believe.

The V3 was never finished.

Finishd or not - it was tested - aka fired - which makes it a gun.

I'm going to pass on that one. :rotfl2:

Here's a 1/72 scale one to go with your Type VII u-boat. Much cheaper and many less parts. :rotfl2:

For those of you who don't want there railguns TOO big:

For $800 it'd better be capable of actually firing scale artillery rounds. :hmmm:

A local hobby shop had one of them in stock awhile back ,the box was freakin massive ,they had to stand it on end so it didn't take up too much room - the wife wouldn't let me have it ,something about not enough room :03::D

I was so excited, until I found out the model wasn't of Dora the Explorer. :wah:
It's a big model and pricey too :o
I still have my 1/72 scale Gato Sub to build, I have acquired 2 1/72 Val Dive Bombers to go with it and am now just looking for 1/72 WW2 era US sub crew models to man it.
Just ordered the Airfix 1/24 scale Mosquito, I am just glad that I have an understanding wife and a Man Cave out the back to build them in :D
Cheers

But...but...but... I thought size didn't matter :D. On the other hand it IS an artillery piece ...:hmmm:

Size doesn't matter when you're on the recieving end. Hand grenade or 7-ton shell, you're just as dead.
Of course the 7-ton shell doesn't have to land within a few feet to do the job... :dead:
