 Date:  Jul 4, 2001
 From:  Kurt Isbrecht 
I have not used Fruil M4 tracks. However, I have used their tracks for the
T-34/76 (early), IS-III and Tiger I (late). They are easy to assemble, no
flash to clean up. "Workable" when completed. On Soviet afv's they present a
very realistic "sag" as is seen in the actual vehicle. Of course you do not
require the same sag on a Sherman. I have used AFV Club and RHPS Models M4
track sets. No flash but you need to remove them from the tree and clean
them up. They are workable also. Sorry I cant be more specific as to Fruil
for the M4. The AFV and RHPS go together easier than the DML and look
better.

Regards, Kurt
