Hi, other than getting an entire kit or conversion, I don't know of any companies that sell just the OWS. AEF Designs and Legends make both full kits and conversions of the Achzarit and Puma which use the OWS.

Have you seen this website that shows the system with lots of picks? Maybe with all the pics you could scratch one?

Thank you Cory,i've those pics.
I'm little bit lazy and before scratching the OWS i'll see if there is any available on the market.
BTW i know that on the legend kit ( the one i've ordered) there is a lot of work to do, so if i can avoid to even do that...also because i'll put the merkava wheels and the new tracks(Gal batash style)!!Of course when this project start i'll post WIP pics.happy modelling!Marco
