Thanks for the review.... I am still waiting for my high bustle turret ring.. I last heard from them over a month ago, when I gave them receipts etc.

Thank you for the review Russ. It is interesting to read your comments on the the models accuracy as we all know that DML makes on the whole very good products, but why do they seem to always make a cock up when it comes to allied vehicles. I just do not understand how they manage to go so wrong when for the most part they have all the pieces it is just the packing they need to get right.

One important point you didn't note is not to follow the instructions if building a US vehicle as DML have you use the British Antennas. There is no evidence to support the very late Low bustle turret ever being fitted to an M4 Composite and the only examples that have been photographed are those fitted to late 47 deg M4A2's in Soviet service.
