    Is the commanders mg ammo box on a hinged mount then? They've always been stuck out sideways on the pics I've looked at
    Thanks Si- they are terrific, aren’t they? ( For the price, they wanted to be, frankly...)

    As for the ammo can, I suppose they must be on a hinge, given how tight it is around the cupola, and the mount being on the right. With the can at right angles, they would have a job opening the hatch, I expect. I was just matching the MG on my 1/35 version, to be honest- I’d not really thought about otherwise!

    Cheers,

      Perpendicular is certainly a possibility:

      I’ve not tried doing an exhaustive search, but I’ve not seen any with the box lengthwise alongside the mounting. It seems like that would be asking for feed trouble, at any rate.

      Also note that this tank has a MAGs without a stock, at least on the commander’s cupola.

          You certainly do — I was pointing it out mainly for those following the thread who may not be aware of the difference
