Howdy SEOmoz fans and thanks for stopping by! We bet you’ve never heard of this hobby before, so here’s a quick introduction. People build RC 1:144 models of ships from WWI and WWII, arm them with BBs and ball bearings, then go out for battles on a pond. The ships shoot each other, and they actually do sink but then are easily repaired and battling again in an hour. The hobby is popular in the US, Canada, and Australia, but currently limited in some other areas due to complex gun laws. We do sell and ship all over the world though, since some people like to just build their model and not partake in the shooting it up fun.

Strike Models provides fiberglass hulls, ship kits, BB cannons, radios, and everything else you need for 1:144 scale models. We support Fast Gun, Treaty, and Big Gun styles of RC model warship combat. We’re based in California, and attend all of the Western Warship Combat Club events in San Jose.

In late July we visited the Fast Gun group of Northwest Naval Combat in Seattle. Here’s the video the Fyddeye Guide took during a battle.

We had requests for almost flat props to be used as drag disks. The first ones have been made and are available for order in a three bladed version. Four bladed versions can be made, but they are much more difficult to make and are special orders. The drag disks are available on the Hardware Page and are listed with the props. new

The new injection molded interrupter pins and stainless steel springs for fast gun cannons have just been added to the bottom of the Fast Gun Cannons page.

The first of the new superstructures is finished. Here is the new stack for the Bismarck.
