The late mantlet with the M3 gun for the M4 Sherman is a resin replacement for the gun mantlet for Sherman models in 1:35 scale from the Tasca and Asuka kits.
Responsibility details are not available.
A replacement part from the Polish maker PANZER ART for models of the M4 Sherman medium tank with the seventy-five-millimeter M3 gun. The set matches the late version of the gun mantlet and is cut for the kits from the Tasca and Asuka brands, which share the same molds. It is not a tank model but a replacement part for a build.
The M3 gun of 75 millimeters caliber was the standard armament of the Sherman for most of its service. It was a versatile gun able to fire both high-explosive and armor-piercing ammunition, which made it a good weapon for infantry support. The late version of the mantlet differs from the early one in the shape and width of the casting, which covers the turret front better. It is precisely by the mantlet that the individual production batches of the Sherman can be told apart.
Wash the part in lukewarm water with detergent and let it dry, otherwise mold release agent will stay on the surface and the paint will peel. Cut the casting block off and level the area with a file, and protect your airways when sanding resin. It is glued with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Once glued, check that the barrel sits level, ideally against the edge of a table. Give the part a coat of primer before painting.
