PA23: 40mm Scale 18th Century Musketeer shooting standing mould

Firing in line allowed musketeers to compensate for the low accuracy of the early muskets. Such formations fired in ranks allowing a degree of sustained fire at enemy units.

This is a vulcanised black rubber mould that can be reused hundreds of times. The figures can be painted in the uniforms of 1700-1760 for England, France, Sweden, Prussia and Russia.

The master figures were initially carved out of wood and still retain some features of a wood carving. Many of these were re-made when we moved over to rubber moulds which could produce more rounded figures (Karoliners).

These early flats are quite hard to cast and require more of the detail to be 'painted in' than our more modern series.

This semi-flat range was remodeled as more rounded figures. The more rounded equivalent for this figure is PAS901.

This product is not suitable for children under the age of 14.
