I'm not sure what you mean there... are you asking about upgrades? If so, I sent my kit with references to The New Tiger Model Designs for an upgraded upper hull and detailed tidbits.

Regards,

The list price is $89.00 ... so When I looked inside (box came un-sealed) I found PE, Turned Barrel, wire tow cable ... basically a very nice Kit ... and a 88 is fine ... But The Germans had bigger guns ... Just saying ...

Nice Jerry,

Thanks Warren ... the 88 is good ... and I'm thinking of building Her as she is ... I was just AMS-ing with after market ideals ...

Looking for bigger longer barrel ideals say a 10.5 like on the Famo ... This one was made in '39 only 10 produced ... and the Famo I think were 15 ... So to keep with German SPGs their might have not been anything in the German arsenal guess I was just looking for after market ideals ... :dude
