Default gas guns

Hi Col, spoke with B, he's more than happy to provide two systems for each tank. If you have his number , give him a call to discuss requirements.

Thanks for the number Dave. Turrets are almost completed as I have just done the other hatches, Aerial mounts, cable covers and a few other internal parts. They are getting close to final paint and fitting.

Thumbs up Gas guns

I'll try and get out during the week ( I need a break from Bathroom renos...) And besides I need to check the quality of your work.... Wouldn't want you to have to re-fabricate anything...........

Thank goodness for that as I don't want to do the final coat until you have signed off on them and given me the "all clear"

Thanks to Russ for the measurements, I have been busy making the trays that fit under the gun port. I have no Idea what this part does but it is on all these models.

it has a opening on the bottom with a handle to empty something.

Spent shells would be inside the turret so I don't think that is what it's for. The opening at the bottom is quite large for quick empty but for what. Perhaps someone else would have the answer.
