Hi all,

I'm currently working on my LVT-4 in British service.

I want to equip my LVT with a 20mm Polsten cannon. I've found one in 1/35 by Cromwell Models but I haven't been able to buy it yet....still trying to get in contact with them!

Anyway I'm now "dressing up" my LVT with stowage and I also already would like to add something for the 20mm. For the .30cal machineguns I've added ammo cans and I'd like to do something similar for the 20mm.

But....

- How was ammo for the 20mm stowed on a vehicle?
- Would it be realistic to add a spare 20mm barrel?

Also if anyone know where I can buy the 20mm cannon, please let me know. I haven't been able to contact Cromwell Models myself yet, they simply don't awnser their phone or email. Maybe somebody knows an online shop where I can buy it?

I'll add some pics of my LVT-4 tommorow!

Thanks,
Martin

As promised, a pic:



I know it's a bad pic but without the flash the pics were way too blurry....

edit: this one is a bit better
