| Subject: | Small Problem with Swapping Gun Mounts |  |

Al and Paul,
The Tasca turret has the proper sized smaller opening for the gun mantlet like the current low bustle turrets from Dragon. Dragon's M34A1 mantlet as supplied with the Tarawa M4A2 will fit it, but the outer mantlet has the different contours at the top to clear the earlier lifting lugs on the top of the mantlet. I don't believe that this would be correct for the era of production of the M4A1, but might be OK for an M4A4. So there is no drop fit part available for the Tasca turret at this time other than the Tasca M34A1 parts. Bummer!!!! I hope to fix this problem sometime soon!
