New here
Hello, Thank you for accepting me into this forum. I am a Marine Corps veteran and served on M48-A5 and M60-A1 tanks, I have always wanted to purchase a large size M60 RC tank, but have not found any. I found this group and thought just maybe someone may know if there are any out there to be had. Thanks again!

Welcome along - Ludwigs do an M60 I think, or an M48 Patton.

Hello Echo5 and welcome to the forum here is the link to the site that Adam mentioned in his post http://www.ludwigs-hobby-seite.de/flohmarkt.html , take a look but be aware that some of these kits can be quite challenging as they come unbuilt and you need to build them from the ground up yourself, with that being said though, if you are up for the task they are very good kits and you'll have something well worth it in the end
Cheers,Lee.

Greetings and Welcome!
Ludwig does do an M-48 it is in kit form and will require "complete" assembly.
https://www.ludwigs-hobby-seite.de/M48.html
Here is a link to the build
viewtopic.php?f=202&t=22675&hilit=M48
The only M-60 that was available was from DKLM and it had been out of stock for at least a year now.

Hi Echo5,
like Lee mentioned, Ludwig kit´s need skillfull hands, but because Chris noticed that, usually he only sells the M48 assembled because working with cast resin is tricky.
You can get in contact with him; I know he have (had) few built M48´s on hand, but they´re pricy.
This is mine:
Cheers, Freddy
