Looking For Guns Sets For U505
« on: October 20, 2008, 02:22:45 am »

  Hi

 I am posting this for a friend who is not online. He has made a remote control model of the German WWII 1/48  U505. He would like to add the Main deck Gun 88mm, the Pair of Twin Anti Aircraft Guns 20mm and the Single Anti Aircraft Gun 37mm. He has Not be able to find those Gun Sets in 1/48.

 Can anyone here help me to contact a dealer in this scale ?

 Thanks In Advance for Your Time and Help,   George Tonkovic

George,

 Unfortunately i dont know anyone that does 1/48 scale but the Robbe U-47 is 1/40 and the difference is minimal, i am pretty sure these can be obtained seperate from Robbe.  As for the twin 20mm,s i,m not sure, the only one i know is Accurate Armour,s 1/35 scale.

Cheers

Hi George,

The only 1/48 gun from your list I can find is the 20mm flak - the quad version. Could well be possible to alter to twin.

This is a new release by Tamiya. you never know they might release the 88 or 37mm soon.
