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?

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.
