It's actually very confusing, The picture of my GR99 gun IS an SIG33 so there must be 2 versions in the catalogue.


But wich is what?

And i must say, if they are the same gun (my picture versus yours) , i must say the one looks better than the other, and is differently proportioned.

If you search for 150mm there are many, lots in the Spanish Civil War and WWI range too.

Yup, Peter was just posting the picture to show the type of gun shown in the original picture. The blog post about the Quar said he'd used Pendraken 150mm German WWII guns, so now we just need to work out which code they are.

I think the sculpting on the shield looks pretty spiffy so I'd rather go with them if possible over the more bland GR99  :)

I've just checked with Dave on this one and while it is similar to our GR99 code, it's not one of our guns unfortunately.

Nope, it's the Battlefront one peter and I posted.

If you want *that* gun you need to go to the Flames of War store and find code GE555.

The Pendraken 150mm SIG is very nice, however, and looks more like the ones I've seen pictures of. I have a couple of the 75mm ones lurking around somewhere.

Nope the Battlefront picture was only posted because we where unsure of wich gun it was, and it matched the gunshield so i used it as an example.

It i not the same gun as the OP as the vision whole is open on the battlefront one and sculpted on on the OP picture

Okay, fair enough.

By the by, can we just confirm we are talking about the gun in the original picture and not the Flames of War one?!  ;)

So, if it's not Pendraken, GR99 is probably the closest. What about GR216 or SCW107?

Cheers!

O Dinas Powys

...and do you have packs of these guns on the trade stand or is it only the armoury vehicles?

I think they could be from chariot miniatures:

But the angle of the piccie is not great, and there is no picture on the magister militum site. Wich wonderously didn't freeze the third time i tried it.

I just hate those new 'thick what you like ' sites.

We wouldn't have these with us on the stand, we do carry a few artillery pieces, but it tends to be the popular stuff like the German 88's, etc.  We can always bring some along though, just drop me a message.
