Hi;
Does anyone know if they are still in OPS;
Tried finding them on the E-net with No Luck, there T-72 was one of the Better offerings that you could get.
Blasts item is pretty good also, but quite expensive

Any Info is Appreciated; CHEERS, MIKE.

Hi,
as JS is a Finnish business afaik, the only Finnish retailer that I know of in Finnland is Mr. Martti Kuivalainen from Helsinki, FI:

http://kuivalainen.mycashflow.fi/

Unfortunately his homepage is in Finnish only, so I canīt tell if he still offers JS produchts. Try to contact him, he speaks English. I bought this turret together with the JS stowage box for T-72 FIN from him about 5 years ago. These days, it took a lot of waiting and emails until he dispatched the order. But he is known to be reliable in Finnland. He had a minimum order of 20 EUR these days to deliver to other countries. Donīt know if this regulation is still active.

Hope that helps...

Andreas

EDIT: Just found the item on his website.

But I would recommend to email him first!

Martti still has them; I just picked one up on Saturday when I was there! Back home now though or I could have got an extra. Lots of other goodies there (Eduard etch, RB barrels, Friul tracks) so it shouldn't be too hard to get to 20 Euros.

what about the SBS ones?

they have several nice turrets...and a early M1 backdate set. Now also a B turret!

John at UMM carries them. Course, he may be at Nats right now.

Hi;
OT;-- SBS turrets are nice from the pictures that I have seen, but they are a New company and not well known as of yet. I have ordered the early turret from UMM, but have not received it yet.
The JS turret is one of the Best T-72s that you can get, the other is Blasts turret but its Impossible too find.

CHEERS; MIKE.
