Anyone have a source for the M23 mount in 1/35th scale, as used on the M113 series of tracks for mounting the M2 .50?

I would recommend J-Shape products if you're looking in the 3D Printed area. Very well detailed designs.

I just looked at their shop. Very nice work. They actually show the real item, cleaned up and primered. There are also instructions! Such an innovative idea (sarcasm). Kidding aside, these products look to be very well thought out and are presented in a professional manner. I can see myself giving them a good deal of business.
