Wanted: This type of barrel and mantlet:

Image

So far I've found something close to this type for sale at RCtank.de (barrel, mantlet) but I was wondering what other options there are, or if maybe someone here has either spare that they're willing to get rid of.

The picture I linked is from an 8 year old thread here, and the builder mentions a 'Nick Aguilar' that he bought the mantlet and barrel from. However, a quick search online didn't yield sufficient information.

I'm looking for the appropriate barrel and mantlet, or very close to it, in any material be it plastic, resin or metal.

Anyone got anything in their spares box, or got a link to variants for sale online?

Thanks for the link. I believe it might be the same article, just an alternate reseller. With the current conversion rate between the euro and the point this might even be a few euros cheaper. All depends on what the S&H is I suppose. Thanks again.

Anyone else have something?

Nick Aguilar is still selling his cast products. His email is ndaguilar@grandecom.net

I am informed and believe he is from the state of Texas, USA

You might ask him what all he currently offers, because I know there's alot of Sherman parts he makes and sells from past experience. Not sure what post rates would be to UK, but it is another option.

Jeff.
