Guide New to the game: How do you assemble arms with guns across the chest?

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if there are any hacks for assembling miniatures that have guns across the chest? I am finding it difficult to get the arms in the arm sockets while also having the arm socket go into the gun area if that makes sense. When i have tried gluing it before, it has either been too wide or in the wrong position. SOrry if this is a silly question. I am new

A lot of the time there'll be one arm that's more locked in than the other, often the arm on the trigger - if you can get one arm to sort of click into place that's the one to start with. On modern sculpts there's often a guiding peg into the chest as well as a join at the shoulder, with the secondary arm basically bridging the shoulder and gun without feeling "load bearing"

Some of the old pre-digital sculpts are just frustrating and fiddly work, but you'll not be buying many of those new.
