GOAT Gun Minatures
Does anyone have any personal experience with these?

https://goatguns.com/collections/goatguns

My buddy likes this type of stuff and I was thinking of getting him one.

How is the quality, ease of build, appearance?

Thanks.

I don’t have any experience with these, but thanks for posting this! Those look really cool. Now I’ll have to start collecting these...

I have some miniatures made by “Marx” from my childhood (mid-to-late ‘70’s) and these are so much better!

We’re doing a gift exchange with our adult children on Elfster, and I just added a couple of these to my wishlist.

I bought the American flag AR on a whim. it sits on my desk at work, what few people come in my office think it's neat, but not $40 neat.
They will bombard you with emails daily, use a burner.
It's real enough, the functional bits work & it seems tough enough for what it is.

While recovering from a new hip I ordered all of them and it took about 15 minutes per gun. They are a great conversation piece and I ended up giving them to anyone that wanted one.

I've been seeing them advertised on a couple of the gun shows that I watched. I checked them out online thinking they would be kind of expensive and was pleasantly surprised at the price.

I might pick up an AR to put on the shelf of my man cave.

Sorry I can't give a real life opinion.

I have the M4 that I put on top of my safe.

They are pretty detailed for what they are and the accessories detach.

Little details like moving the rear sight knobs, trigger, selector switch, and the charging handle pulls back and pops open the ejection cover is pretty cool.

I wish these things were around when I was a kid.

My mother and Grandmother worked for Marx, please post pictures of those miniatures....I remember them and wish I still had them.

Thanks everyone for the input. My buddy is also into golf and I bought him something golf related. I will keep these in mind for next time.

They look like they get their stock from the same place RW Mini's does. I have several guns from RW for a shadow box\I love me display. They work well enough and look good on display.

I gave my 2 boys one each for Christmas last year. They got a kick out of them. Well built. Oh, my boys are in their 30s

I keep looking at a few different models. If they had an M1 Garand I’d be building instead of looking.
