 Subject:  Re: Horch with 2 cm Flak 38List thread.  
  
 Date:  Apr 11, 2008
 From:  Klaus Wiedemann 
I studied all the pictures I know once again and I suppose the following points we can discuss:

There must have been a large base for the gun. Maybe this base could have covered the whole space over the two crew seats in the back.
There is a picture showing the loader sitting on the left side of the gun.

The gun was positioned in the center of the car. When I simulate this position with my model and looking at the pictures I think the base of the gun was turned 180 degrees. The towing end of the gun must Have been at the front end of the car.

This leads to an other problem: The gun`s base (Dragon kit) is much to large for the space where it`s located. The towing hook hangs over in the space between the driver and the codriver`s seat. I have a picture showing a dark shadow in the mentioned area but it's not clearly visible.

Do you think this all could be possible?
Please tell me Your opinion.

Thanks Klaus
