its bizarre, but awesome! I don't think thats a flak 38 though. the mount itself is unique, but the gun cradle looks nothing like a 38. a flak 30 maybe?

it is a Gerbigsflak, I understand that it is a special lightened gun mount for mountain troops...
There was also a special version of the RSO for Gerbigstruppen, donīt know the difference with the standard one.
How good/bad are ACE models? Iīve heard opinions ranging from excelent to garbage. And they have some very interenting subjects
