I just ordered from Coelian Models a set of modern Dutch vehicle stowage # 35003.The set includes the C7 that the Dutch use.In the pictures they don't look to bad.I will post a review here when I get them.
They can be found at http://www.coelianmodels.com/coel135/Coelian%20Models%20homepage3.htm .

Jim,

I've got two sets on the way too.

There are two types of weapons in the set...two C7A1s and two C8A1s.

They shoudn't be hard to convert them into C7A2s.

Change the C8A1 with the Elcan to the version used in Afghanistan by adding an EOTech sight.

I can't wait to get my hands on those Elcan sights...finally something to put on a C9 or a C9A2.

By the way, the folks at Coelian Models are excellent to deal with.
