At the moment, any old Ghulam with a rifle. There is no LGL model.

With the special weapons box coming very soon, my guess would be... any old model with a rifle. The special weapon box so far has shown a hacker, missile launcher and sniper. I'd guess the 4th will be a HMG. So we still won't have an LGL Ghulam.

I converted myself an old Ghulam with rifle to have an underbarrel GL:

One of my first Infinity miniatures, so neither the paintjob nor photo are any good... but you get the picture.

That there, there will be pure wine and honey and sugar
Fill up the wine cup and place it in my hand

I also looked at female ghulam for custom LGL. Good job in my opinion!

Thanks a lot Errhile. I was debating something like that and I feel a lot better knowing it looks good.

Also what is the stance on using Daylami as an extra Ghulam just so they look different or the Hunzakut sniper as a Ghulam sniper? To me they units don't look that different.

Isn't the technical answer that any rifle armed Ghulam could have either the shotgun or the grenade launcher?

I mean, I'd have mine be more obvious, so I don't forget... :}

Technically, yes. But when you have 4 Gulam riflemen (the 5th being HMG), you could prefer a more obvious visual clue ;)

Besides, I prefer to have my weapons aptly preresented if possible.

@ Smokingmonkee - the Daylami look close enough to the Ghulam, especially the old ones, so if you have a mix of old Ghulam, new Ghulam and a Daylami, all in the same paint scheme, no one should even notice! ;)
Hunzakut sniper is a common proxy for a Ghulam Sniper (though I'm making a Ghulam Sniper of my own - just need to take a pic of him... oh yes, and paint him!).

When I get around to doing one (I do have 8 ghulams for my QK), I'll try to do a rough analogue of the AK launcher (as opposed to the underbarrel style the US uses on the M-16/AR types - as the Haqq rifle DOES look more AK.

From memory, it wasn't a breech loader but was muzzle loaded (the GP-25 was at least).
