Very tempting...
You could also add the tension springs with some copper wire from an electrical cable. That would be the cat's meow on those nice mudflaps.
Springs are done and more work done on the turret-
To Zim or not to Zim. I want to put Zim on it but don't know if I can be bothered.

Thanks-
Quick update
Got a metal TaiGen Panzer IV 75mm KwK 40 L/48 but it seemed a bit short.
From the rear of the muzzle brake to the front of the barrel housing (the thick part) it measures 83mm but from measurements taken from one of George Bradfords plans it should be closer to 107mm.
So I had a play around with it and got it more to the correct length

It is short. It's more like the L43. Wish I had known you wanted one. I'd have sold you mine cheap. I was told by someone that it would have supported airsoft. It doesn't.
So, now I have an extra one.
Looking good. I like your work!

6mm BB's on a 1/16 tank equal a 96mm shell in real life. So you won't get any BB gun to scale unless its over at least a 100mm gun.
How much do you want for you L43?

Yea...I have to have a modern tank to have the true scale and keep the airsoft. But, I keep the airsoft on these because it's fun.
I paid $19.00 plus shipping for it. How about $10 plus shipping? Not sure what the shipping would be to the UK. I'd have to look that up.

Hi thanks. I can get them in the UK for the £8.50 which is about $12.
