First things first Welcome to the Forum,
Now to business Why do you need a New Turret for your M26 because most parts of a Heng Long Tank can be fixed without the need of a major purchase.
We can I am sure help with any questions as to how to fix your Tank.
Just ask.
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

Check out the shops on Aliexpress--Toucan Hobby, Hongsen, Heng Long etc. Many of them sell the bits and pieces for HL tanks.

Time was when almost all of us were no good at making/fixing things but with application and support from this Forum we seem to be getting quite good at it :thumbup:
Replacing hatches is a combination of patience, working out how the hatch is fitted, and lots of dry runs and as to fixing broken items there is a world of fixings ready to come to the rescue.

:) Good evening,
No, we are not all good at certain things? but as said above, with a little perseverance we are sometimes surprised to have done it!! a photo of the problem, would be welcome, maybe someone on this excellent forum, would have an idea?

Here's the spare parts that come when the tank is new. See anything that fits what you need? Heng Long also called the Pershing a "Snow Leopard" for some reason, so that's another search to do.
