Does GHQ make this item (Pak35)? If not, any idea if another model looks similar?

Support Weapons - WWII German
GHQ Stock # G56

Includes 4 x 37mm PAK 34/35 ATG (some with stielgranate), 4 x 75mm light Infantry Guns, and crew figures

You'll find it under the infantry section...look for it in the list just after Heavy Weapons

Hi Mark:
You want pack G-56 "support weapons" in the infantry section of the listings.
Last I knew, it contained 4 PAK-35/36 and 4 75mm Lig-18.
Some of the 37mm's have "stielgranate" in the tubes, but can be trimmed off; there may even be some spare guns- Been a long time since I bought mine.

Unfortunately, the pack tends to result in too many Lig's for me, especially now as I need the PAK for my Hungarians...
At least you get to pick/buy your own "tows" if you need them !

Looks like you got-in while I was looking it up...
I don't remember any crew when I bought mine many years ago.
Are they using the "4-man kneeling group" casting some other packs have?
Jim R.

Looks like the crews are seperate. I don't own this pack and only know about it because an evil friend of mine (Mark Luther) has been tempting me to leave 15mm WWII gaming and adopt 6mm gaming based on his amazing presentations.

As it is I can honestly thank Mark for leading me back to 6mm modern gaming. When I started playing in some of Mark's 1/285 WWII games I was looking at 15mm moderns. Mark's presentation and GHQ's amazing selection of figures convinced me to go with GHQ's models.

Today I received some Abrams-based bridge carriers from one of my GHQ sale orders and I realized that there was no way a modern 15mm gamer can accumulate all of the interesting equipment available from GHQ in 15mm. I still like certain aspects of 15mm (especially the infantry) but when it comes to selection, scale consistency, and accuracy of terrain modeling you can't beat 1/285.

Thanks.
Bet we could both of answered our questions in the on-line cataloge from the looks of that photo...
I didn't know there were ANY individual kneeling crewmen; at least not since the mortar-men in the origional individual inf. packs long, long ago...
Micro is amazing, isn't it? I'll stick to WW-2 though; I avoid modern like a plague.
We still love our 15mm Ancients too, though I keep thinking about 6mm phalangites...
