Panzer Patronen Update

Tim Bowman · Post by **Tim Bowman** » Tue Nov 10, 2009 6:56 pm

Hi everyone

Some of you know already but I wanted to post and let everyone know that I will have a very limited, initial quantity available of the following ammunition types for our excellent Armortek kits. I was hoping to post first parts by now and with luck, will have something this week.

The first set of parts will include a very limited quantity of the following types of ammo. I have drawn every type of projectile for all the various types of ammunition but am only producing the ones pictured to start with. They will include all markings as my previous versions did.

The Tiger II/ Jagdpanther will be metal casing only with resin projectiles (based off Mike Stannard's excellent masters). If there is enough interest, I will be happy to do a run of all metal 8.8 Kw K 43 ammo, including projectiles.

No prices yet. Sorry. Please PM or email if you think you might be interested and quantities as it will help me prepare which types I may need to produce more of on a future run of parts. I'll be happy to build the Patronenkasten with complete markings in your choice of finish to go with the ammo as well of course.

Thanks again to all who have shown support for my ammo project.

Best regards and happy tanking!
Tim

Tim,
I'm interested in a couple AP and a couple HE for the Panther, plus some empty cases. Will these be metal proj + metal case? Or resin? Would like 1 additional crate too.

Have you made the Tiger 1/Flak 36,37 ammo yet?

Wow thats a lot of different ammo. My hat is off to you for even considering this project.
Kind regards,
Bob

Hi Bob

Consider the Panther rounds set aside for you.

The 8.8cm Kw K36 casings and ammo were already perfected by Mike Stannard a few years back. Therefore, I have not made them. I highly recommend his if you need ammo for your Tiger 1. Mike made the Pzrg Patr. 39/1 and Sprgr Patr 36. as well as beautiful casings. The only thing I have created, and may make, is a few HEAT rounds for the Tiger. These will drop right into Mike's casings.

I do make the Patronenkasten for them in your choice of finish.

I would be interested in one each of the 50mm L60 rounds.
Thanks!

Tim,

They all look great! And, I am still interested in the 5cm/L42 and 7.5cm/L24 rounds. So, count me in on those for sure!

Please put me down for the 5cm munitions for Panzer111, not sure what type but for a standard Ausf l. plus a crate if possible.

Thanks

Paul

Hi Everyone

Thank you for all the interest and orders. The first run of L60 ammo is now all spoken for and no longer available. There is enough for everyone who has already contacted me regarding ammo (including L60). Hope to have another update and photos soon. If you have contacted me and not received a message acknowledging your interest/order please PM me to let me know.

For anyone interested who was waiting, there will be another production run in the near future of the types of ammo that sold out from this first, small run.

Thanks again

Kind regards
Tim

Hello Tim,

I can't find a response from you regarding one each of the 3 types of L 60 rounds. Sorry if I missed it somewhere.
Thanks

Hi Lawrence

You are all set.

Will follow up shortly with everyone.

Regards
Tim

Hi Everyone,

My apologies for the long delay. Without getting into too much detail, I have had a very difficult time getting the ammo produced. Very frustrating for me.

However, for those who have shown interest in the Panzer III L60 ammo, the good news is I should have finished parts to show this Friday and will post prices. The other types of ammo to follow in the priority order shown below.

I have drawn up every type of ammunition for each type of gun used by German panzers during WWII and will post images and descriptions soon. I plan on making small quantities of each type.

Again, I apologize for the long delay and thanks again to everyone who has contacted me.
Kind regards
Tim

Hi everyone

I apologize for the long delay. Especially to all those who have contacted me, interested in these ammo rounds. It has turned into a painful process just to get these parts that were dropped off last night so I could check them before plating. I believe there are enough 5cm for everyone who has shown interest in those rounds and I will be sending PM or email when they are ready and with final pricing.

Again, sorry for the delay.

regards
Tim

Hi Tim,

No problem with the delay. We all know they'll be well worth the wait

They look superb

Thanks Antony

Many thanks Antony for your support.

Some progress. Here's a sampling of the KwK 39 (L60)

and KwK 37 (L24)Pzgr. Patr. These are the two AP rounds I plan on producing for this particular ammo.
