Looks good painted, too.

It does look good, but would you spend that much on a type that never actually saw service (at least, that's what l read)? Nice though, l did take a very nice Torro one off Dave n Julie.

Whilst that does look gorgeous there are some historical errors on that Panther

Well, Tom, here's an 'F' Turret 9Schmalturm) that did see some action- a bit too much, as it happens- on the Bovington shooting ranges.

Those holes look a bit like the metal fractured rather than a penetration effect. Wonder how much of that was due to the round used and how much was metal composition.

Hi Rob,
the turret shows the typical traces of training ammunition (without explosives) => deformation and cracks

[RobW]

Cheers, so target practice rather than trying to test new types of gun/ammunition.
