I thought I remembered seeing a resin replacement cast STZ turret. Can anyone point me to it?

Thanks,
Matt

Chesapeake Model Designs CMD do or did one-not sure if they are still going. Also I think Mig do one. Not sure if Anubis creations do one but worth checking out.

Hi Matt,
I think the only cast late STZ turret out there was by Mig. CMD never made a late STZ turret - they did a very nice cast early version. Anubis always focused on the late war srtuff.
I have one somewhere but I never looked at it too closely to see how accurate it was. If you really need me too, I can dig it up and take some photos.
HTH, Dmitry

@ Dmitry:
If you could take some pictures without much trouble, I would appreciate them. If it's buried too deeply in the model stash, I understand completely!

I cannot find either the old CMD cast turret (for an L-11 gun armed T-34 1940 I'd love to do) or the Mig Productions cast STZ turret. If anyone has either of these, and would part with them for a price, or knows where I could find one please let me know.

Thanks for the help,
Matt

Matt,

Armo did an early (1941) T-34 turret with L11 gun....not sure it's STZ factory but the quality is good, includes Part PE and Armo interior pieces if I remember correctly.

Set # 35 511

Thanks! I'm still looking for the MIG STZ cast turret, but the Armo turret looks good for my future cast turret L-11 factory 183 version. Just ordered one from Jadarhobby!
