Hi Everybody;

If my Memory serves me correctly, was there A kit that offered the Pig Snout Mantlet with-out the Canvas Cover !!
Any Info, that would Lead Me in the Right Direction is Greatly Appreciated.

CHEERS; MIKE.

Wasn't it a kit of knocked-out T-72 turret showing the mantlet you're after? Maybe Verlinden.

If you mean the Verlinden "Point Blank" one, it still has canvas cover on.

If your talking about one for the T-55, MIG's first company did one also Modelpoint has one. They are a little diffent from each other, but both look good. The legend's T-54 conversion kit also includes one.

Hi Guys;

Thanks for the replys; The 2A46 has a Mantlet that is Different from either the 100mm or the 115mm Rapira.
I had thought that there was one of the Newer kits that had the Mantlet included in the kit which was just the pig snout with out the canvas cover. Maybe it was the Xact Scale T-80, or Mengs T-90 ! I know its not Verlinden !
I have been Building Dios, of T-72s Burnt out for consignment and they would look Better with the mantlet CC Burned Away also.
Thanks Again; Cheers, MIKE.
