sorry Justin, but that's not an Airborne 6 pdr as it still has the front armour plate (in front of the gun shield) in place, this was removed on airborne 6 pdrs.
I always liked their figures but find the glider overpriced, compared with, say, the Armaments in Miniature resin one.

Ah, thanks for clarifying…I wondered why that was on there (quickly disappears with pliers and malicious grin!)

Didn't know Skytrex did 15mm. But I'd have to agree: I'm not sure if the casting quality is good enough to justify a price higher than Old Glory 15's. But their resin pieces do look sharp!

JMD,

If you're converting it, the axle was also narrower on the Airborne 6pdr, compared to the standard 6pdr. US Airborne also used the same gun.
