Hello,
Does anyone know of a detail set that corrects the gun shield for this kit? I would have thought Aber or Eduard would have one out by now. I have searched most of the standard online shops and sites, but can't find anything specific to this kit. Am I just missing something?(It has been known to happen)
Thanks,
Erol

I don't think there is any 'fix' sets for this as any replacement Pak 40 shield should do the job. Just don't cut the corners as high as Dragon!
*EDIT* Failing you having one in your spares box, Lucky Model (link on the left) have the Pak 40 in at $15. I suppose it's down to how badly you need to fix those cut outs? (I've already checked my spares....sorry)

I plan on using the AFV Club photo etch shield - but haven't really figured out how I'm gonna do the cut out, yet. I kinda thought that someone would have put out a "correct" one as well.

The old CMD conversion (pre-DML) had etched shields with the cutouts.
I wonder if the folks at CMD would sell just the etched fret?
