SdKfz 234/4 (1 Viewer)

[Guy]

Folks ,
Some collectors have a problem fixing the gun onto the body of this AFV ( gun elevation gear is obstructing a neat fix) It was the case with my SdKfz 234/4
If you have this problem with your model, please let it know to Tom by e-mail or through this forum. I know already of one collector having the same problem.
thanks

I think the way it is constructed most will have a problem, it was an easy fix. I just cut off the tip of the elevation gear and glued in a piece of plastic about 1/8th inch thick ( The piece of plastic you get to seal bread would work great ) and my Puma is ready for action.

I know many of you will say this kind of stuff shouldnt happen, and it shouldnt. But it did and it is a minor setback to a wonderful TGM product line. I will gladly fix yours for you if you care to cover shipping. Alex

I have to say that I recived one today as a gift with other things from TG and, its fine, no problems on any of the ten sets I recieved today be it packaging or, with the sets themselves. seems two people have had problems as guy does not mention he has.

Gentlemen

My above offer still stands, but in thinking about it the shipping probably is not worth it. LMK if you are having a problem and I will post pics of the fix. Alex

I had the same problem Mitch, and I fixed it the way Alex did. I broke off the tip of the elevation gear and replaced it by a plastic support not visible for the eye.

Guy...

Just re-read your post and saw you mentioned you did have an issue. Perhaps you or Alex could post pics as I am struggling to see or picture in my minds eye what piece is causing you issues as I said mine together as it was intended to do.

TG have emailed everyone explaining the possible hitch and how to fix it, seems all good, not worried about my when it arrives later this week. Cheers, Robin.

another storm in a teacup averted!!! I read the e-mail and it does seem that not everyone seems to be having issues with the fit so, it seems sorted.
