Heng Long recoil barrel add on

[JustaGuy59]

Hello, I wanted to turn my Heng Long Sherman tank into a "Fury" Easy Eight Sherman. I found a recoil setup off of Amazon, it looks nice and all but I haven't done any measuring yet but just out of the package it looks a bit too long. I was wondering if anyone else has added one of these and if they know the correct length in inches off hand? Any help would be appreciated, thank you, Dave.

That would be the Heng Long 1/16 scale tank.

What do you plan on doing about the suspension ?

at this point nothing, I wanted a recoil barrel and the correct length barrel for the easy 8 tank.

You really do not want other Sherman to laugh at your hybrid Sherman? You can purchase the HL barrel recoil BB shooting unit without the barrel and use it with your existing M4A3 barrel. It is much cheaper to implement and looks a lot better.

Well to be honest I'm not really worried about what other Sherman tanks would think, i was just looking for a length of a barrel.
