I've used the AFV bronze casting for the M2 50cals on my Abrams. I believe it to be a metal casting made from the Tamiya 50cal. As for the M240 30 cal. I've used the one supplied in the Trumpeter M1A1 kit. It would be nice to have a nicely molded M240!
I should also mention the set available from Shapeways..the links says 1/35 but it is available in 1/16.

Ed,
Get the "Frosted Ultra Detailed" set the "Strong, Flexible" are IMO terrible from a detail level and the finish is extremely rough!
