M59 M41 M47 M84
Roco Minitanks Reconnaissance Company.
Deployed in small town America.
Ready to keep the peace after civil unrest.
Few rioting crowds will face off against tanks.
Soldiers in armored personnel carriers are well protected in such situations.
The M59 late production had an M48 tanks style cupola.
The M59 was also converted to a mortar carrier for the 4.2 inch mortar, note the base plate on the rear ramp.

Tim Mee SWAT
Tim Mee SWAT Team surrounds a house.
The lieutenant talks on the bull horn to ask the occupants to come out with their hands up.
The sniper is ready.
This man is repositioning. Revolver in hand and baton on his belt. In the 1960s when SWAT was new the often wore helmets and carried revolvers.
This policeman uses a radio, the radios were big and some agencies had small microphones that you could hold and leave the heavy radio on your belt. It was tethered by a curly cue cord.
They often wore external body armor; armor was not common and too heavy to wear under clothing.
Grenade launcher ready to fire tear gas alongside the sniper.
Figures are about 60mm and are excellent. They come in gray and blue, and even green and black. My friend Clarence sent me these, thanks!
