Don't know if this question has been asked or not since I've joind but I'm working on doing a collection of Flack guns used by the German's during WW2. beit towed or mounted on vehicals. by chance does anyone have links or photos of the various Flack guns used thru out the war ??? currently I've started on the 20MM Flack37MIT Sd.Ah.51 by tamiya. trailer is cleand up an sink holes filled as well as the rest of the sink holes I could find on the gun. also if anyone has ever replaced the kit barrel with a brass turnd or other aftermarket gun.. what is your opinion upon such items.. and if anyone has a spare they'd like to part with lemme know a price or trade item.

thanks again

Available are many artillery pieces. By the way, its FLAK (not flack) for Fleugzeugabwehrkanone (anti aircraft gun in German)
