PBR (Patrol Boat, River x2) Assembly

 

Step 1. Begin assembly of the Patrol Boat by gluing the radar dome into the hole in front of the boat’s pilot house.

Tip: We recommend that you use good quality Super Glue to assemble resin and metal vehicles.
Step 2. Add the Twin M2 .50cal gun to the front deck turret. The front deck turret goes in the hole shown below. Do not glue it into place, so it can rotate to face toward its target.

Step 3. Next, add the upright armored shields in the slots located in the back of the boat. Make sure the rounded corners face upwards.

Step 4. Begin assembly of the rear deck turret by adding the M2 .50cal to the gunner. Make sure the pin that holds the gun into place on the boat faces downwards.
