Hello all.This is my first post to this forum,hopefully there will be more in the future.First ,thanks to all contributors to Fine Scale Modeler.The help I have received over the years from reading FSM has been invaluable! Next, I need help on P-47D RAZORBACK gunsights.It is one of the only reference manuals I don’t have and I am aliitle short on the old cash flow right now.As most of you know,when money is tight you will find a way to contiue doing what you love!Anyway,I can’t seem to find any decent pics of any close-ups of either the K-14 or Mk VIII.Any help would be great! Thank all of you again!

Hey Chris,
I’ll see what other pix I have that you could use.
Flaps up, Mike
You truly are THE MAN! Thanks.Will take me awhile to upload what I have done on the P-47.It is a huge project literally.I am working on adding all the extra detail that I can stand to scratch build to a 1/18 scale P-47d Razorback from 21 Century toys.If you have seen these you know they are already assembled.My project has required tearing open this beast and adding extra detail to engine and cockpit and re-assembly,sanding seams and filling and eventually re-paint and custom decals.This is my first attempt at something this large and so far the results are at least much better than the detail that came on this thing.Wii work on posting those pics soon.Talk to ya later.
Hiya,
Heres a few more that you can add…
Flaps up, Mike
This is the only pic I have of one, though I have no idea what model it might be. Though it looks rather like the MK-8 Butz put up above.
Hey guys, thanks a million.I really appreciate this.I will put all these pics to good use scratch building the gunsight.Thanks again, Chris
