Help With details on 251/21 Drilling

Modeling Subjects Armor

I know I’m a complete idiot, I got the dragon kit the other day, and went to find my reference, the stuff in AFV mag, and low and behold its gone to the trash. I’m looking for links etc. and any images of the vehicle plus guns.

Thank you all in advance.

Regards,

Terry.

Here is the PMMS reviews of both the AFV Club and Dragon kits. Might be some useful information;

The MG 151/20;

Some more stuff in German, including a photo of one a little worse for the wear;

One thing that is not shown in the instructions. Parts G4 and G2 shown in step 18 in the Dragon instructions should not have the gap between them completely closed as shown. There should be about a 3/16" gap . And be careful with the ammo strips G14 ( Step 17). I have tried immersing them in hot (not boiling ) water to make them more flexible, but still have not had much luck. Good luck to you.

Thanks for the links, I’m tempted by the destroyed vehicle.

Regards,

Terry.

Here’s mine, I substituted PE ammo belts and I used Fruil track:

Be careful with the side armor to floor fit up, it can be a bear!
