Question about pack # US49 57mm Anti-Tank Gun

Post by Muggy »

The listing states 4 guns & 2 vehicles...are the guns all in deployed mode? Or maybe easily 'adjustable'?

Thanks in advance!

That would be 2 deployed guns, and two limbered guns towed by the 2 vehicles.

I purchased the 57mm about 18 months ago (but haven't done anything with it yet).
It seems to me that the trailing legs on the towed pairs could be moved into deployed mode if one was careful and not super picky about the final angles. The pack I got had 4 crew sets.

It is fairly easy to convert the limbered guns to deployed guns. Simply split the trails and gently bend them open, although the recoil spades look a little different. You will need to order additional crews however as you only get two per pack. At least that is what I got...
Tactics are the opinion of the senior officer present.
