Our group is looking at Butlers new 3d printed model of the M51 Isherman. We came to the consensus that the turret looked off. Too tall & too Narrow / pointed. Anyone else see that? Or our we seeing something not there?

If it is off they can redo the CAD on it and not have to worry about getting stuck with inventory. We want to order some but……

After some more research by the retired gamers in our group seems the Battlefront M51 which we have might be the turret problem & not Butlers. Based on a photo of an M51 laying on its side published by the IDF.

Anyway can someone verify which model has correct turret shape/ size?

Looks like the GHQ Isherman matches the Battlefront model than Butlers.

Maybe your gaming group could scrape up 50 cents a piece and order one.
