Paul 😁 the other night you mentioned the 3.7cm Pak being hitched up to the requisitioned airborne jeep. Here's my take on the jeep in preparation for the gun and new jeep owners 😉

2 howitzers landed yesterday and on the desk ready for tomorrow. Cracking models and the crew are top tier! I think come pay day, I'll be putting in another order as I have so many more conversion ideas across the range 🤪 #WW2 #COC2 #boltaction
