Recoil for 1/16 Tamiya Sherman 105 Howitzer

Post by richardfrommars »

Hi guys,

I am new to this forum. I am currently working on a 1/16 Tamiya Sherman 105 Howitzer and trying to convert it to an Easy 8. However, I noticed that the kit did not come with a gun barrel recoil system. I am wondering what type of recoil system I can get (in the US) to fit it in the Nick Aguilar T23 turret? Thanks a lot!

Hello and welcome to the forum Richard (in the US). And there was me thinking you were "from Mars" ;)

It would be absolutely spiffing if you could pop over to our "Introduce Yourself" section to tell us a little about yourself with regards to this hobby, as politely asked within your "Welcome" private message on joining the forum, also asked within the Sticky thread within this General Questions section headed, "NEW MEMBERS - IMPORTANT - READ THIS FIRST!!"

Thank you.

^ What Mick said.

Also as you are in the US, you can get recoil units and a load of other Tamiya spares you'll likely need here: http://shop.aaftankmuseum.com/
