Hi all:
Can anyone tell me-

1-is the ZIS-2 57mm ATG a one or two piece cast?
2-how many AAA version (2 or 3) in the GAZ truck pack?

I'm looking at building Su-12, Su-57-1, and GAZ 37mmAA spg.
Thanks,
JimR.

I believe there are 3 two-axle GAZ-AA and 2 three-axle GAZ-AAA in the R42 pack not four.

Thanks guys.
I suspected there were more 2 axle jobs; just wanted to make sure i ordered enough.
And with the guns, you never know anymore...

Mike- I should have been clearer & given pack numbers.
I was looking at the 5-pack of GAZ trucks (2 types); forgot about the AA mg variant pack.
Now if I could get those mg pedistals out without wrecking them or the truck bed...
I want to build the truck mounted 37mm AA that preceeded the Zis-42 Ht version.
Thanks again,
JimR.

Not too hard, actually.

Just use a pair of cuticle snippers. Even a cheap pair. Can be found in any drug store or even most grocery stores.

I've dug/shipped the quad-maxims out of one of my trucks. Not that I had great plans for the truck (just gonna make it an ammo truck -- open deck with added crates), but I wanted the quad-maxim for a static emplaced mounting. Gotta be able to build a few fortifications for my Red Army sometimes...
