I'm painting some PZIV Ds and I cant identify the following: Mounted on the muffler there is what looks like a rack of 5 tubes, each about 3 inches in diameter and a foot or so long. I thought they might be grenade dischargers, but there is a short chain hanging down in front of each tube. I'm stumped. Can any of the learned gentlemen here explain these? Thanx. |

Completely uneducated guess here…
Mounts for something (like poles for camo netting), the chain is there to tie down whatever it is? Got a picture? Are the tubes vertical or horizontal? |

The chains are there to keep the tube-caps with the tank after firing, much as you might tie a lens-cap to a camera. |
