The grenade launcher proved interesting but hre it is
It just needs three brass rod pegs on the three corners adjusted to the corect length and mounted on the turret, oh and one needs to be printed mirrored.

Just got my recoil & barrel lift servos working, as I wanted to use a slightly smaller gear wheel for the lift, the bolt holes were in a bad position, so rather than bonding the lower turret location ring into place I bolted it into place in 3 positions, just in case I need to get in to change the servos. This enables me to get to the lift servo really easy, good do as I’ve bonded it in place
