            • Rubicon99, your T72 GX-2 looks great! The main gun bore looks smaller than on most model tanks. Are you using a smaller diameter main gun bore to narrow the ir beam and force yourself to take more precise shots?

                The barrel is a custom 3D printed resin barrel with metal sleeve inner bore liner. The bore is slightly smaller then the stock HL “bb’ bore, but large enough to fit an IR (or flash) bulb snuggly. It is the same bore size I fit to most of my tanks ( I remove the forward section of HL inner barrel or I add tubing inside to reduce the inner diameter) it tighten the beam slightly but not some much that I handicap myself with a much slower aiming speed. The bulb set back is slightly further back in the barrel at 10mm on this tank. Overall this tank was built with a much larger and different playing field in mind that see engagements at 50 -100+ ft routinely and high speed maneuvering (modern theme A.I.M. battles) like that of the San Diego club or lessor degree PHX club. The LA field is just to small but made for a good “live fire” trials day for it.

                    The ERA / EMA, barrel and up armored turret hatches are 3D printed. They were designed by JVM3Dconcepts to my specifications. The turret off as a stripped down Henglong ZTZ 99A turret and modified to fit onto the T72 hull. Other small parts are kit bashed (taken) from a Leopard 2, Bradley, T90, Leopard 1 and Abrams.

                                        It is best for the tank in running it outside if you can reverse the tracks the other way

                                          Looks good to me.
                                          What scale are they?
                                          I guess 1/35?
