A few more parts added.

Ignore the overly long bolts.

Barrel looks a bit long but it is to scale , maybe look better when i get the armour added.

Its all about the details.
Made the tow hitch out of a 2mm bit of piano wire and a spring from a pen.

The optic at 1/16 scale is not very big at all !

The two vertical "shocks" are functional and help to support the barrel. Pen springs helping out again.

Cleaning rods were a challenge to print, had to make in two parts and glue together.

Breach handle.

Front armour plate with ammo box's ?

Shocks, tow hooks, suspension limiter and belly pan.

Only a couple of small parts left and it will be complete, then my favorite part, paint.

Final parts printed.
Locking pins when gun is deployed.

Breach tie down binders.

And lastly, ammo box and shells.

What size screws are you using and what you sued for the tow hoop and spring
