Famous in my eyes for firing the opening shots of the Stalingrad Campaign, manned by women militia workers firing over open sites at the advancing Panzers. A nicely moulded, no fuss model, if ever so slightly fiddly to put together, hampered perhaps by my choice of using super glue. Got there in the end though :)
I have another one of these to put together plus an 85mm AA gun for my Soviet AA unit.

Nicely done Geordie.
Its a well thought out piece.
When I made mine I used PVA glue to strengthen the joins. I do recall I had a real problem with one fiddly piece, but a wonderful little model.
Son of York:
PVA glue? I would have thought that a bit too runny
Paul:
It's a nice kit, if you see it get it ;)
The PVA glue I paint on over the clip in joins to secure them, rather than bond them. I was finding bits were popping out or I was concerned they could come loose, although I must say I was always very impressed at how well parts went together, but there always seemed to be one troublesome bit (that could be easily fixed with knife and glue).
Cheers

I can see your wisdom now, the superglue approach (despite the strong bonds) is way too messy
I am thinking of reverting back to normal model glue
