    Anyone have a link to the big gun rule book? I tried searching but didn't really come across what I was looking for...

    Thanks!

    I don't believe there is a single rulebook for BG - I think each club has their own variant.

    Well to be more precise I'm looking for rules on sub construction/armor thickness/armament/pumps stuff like that

    Those are likely to have some minor variations, but... I think the most common in north america is the NTXBG rules, try: NTXBG Homeport - Welcome! | Rules (yes, their SSL cert is expired, their site is currently fine to visit)

    Nathaniel Hi
    Big gun is a term that was adopted for simplicity. It's sorta like Fast Gun which has a few groups also. I will put it this way.
    Fast Gun are clubs that use standard BBs
    Big Gun are clubs that not only use BBs but, 3/16, 7/32nd and 1/4 inch ball bearings inclusive.

    The group I am with Pacific Model Warship Combat Club, uses 3/16 and 1/4 inch shot only. We would also be considered under the Big Gun umbrella.
