I found if you insert/splice your tank antenna right at the bottom -where it exits the tank body- into the end of a small empty plastic wire tube..that allows the gun..as it traverses.. to push the antenna aside and return back to vertical.

Cut antenna and insert into flexible tube near where it attaches to the tank body.

Glad you liked it..nice way for antenna to allow barrel to swing if you have a more rigid metal antenna as if often
sold. The antenna plastic sleeve and lower antenna on mine are all black or you can only go black for the lower area
in case anybody is wondering about colors :)
