Title: SCW German 105mm gun
Post by: lekw on 24 May 2012, 06:07:43 AM

Does anyone have a picture of this pendraken model? I purchased the pack and can't seem to understand how to put the gun together. I have looked online but have found no pics. Thanks in advance.

I assume this is the same as the WWII leFH18 105 - you should be able to google up some images.

No the SCW 105mm is not the same as the WWII leFH18.

@lekw Do you have the code SCW106 or the newer code SCW167?

I have the SCW106s finished but not done the others yet. I seem to remember some difficulty in figuring them out. From memory I think the 'flaps' (not sure of the correct term but of you're looking at the casting I think that should do!) on the gun shield face forward and may have bent the gun trail to get the barrel to point upwards.

Thanks Peter I will try that. It is the SCW code. Can not find any images of this gun online and can not seem to get it to look correct, or at least I don't think it looks correct? Can you snap a picture of your gun?

Sorry the code was the SCW106 code.

@lekw - SCW106 as assembled by me - no guarantee that this is correct but I think its right.

Try a google image search for '10.5cm leFH 98' and I think its the first photo that shows the gun in turkish service.

Hope this helps. How about posting your finished gun for comparison?

Peter.

Thank you Peter that is the gun. I was able to put it together by looking at your pictures. I had the shield on the wrong way. I will snap some pictures once I paint them.
