Looking very good Günter🫡 keep on sharing pics of your progress. I love those ammo pics.
Are you also making them for sale in the future.

Hi Fabian,
in principle it would be possible to print the parts for the ammunition. The ammo is made of some printed parts and an alumnium tube.
However, the DM88 and the DM98 was developed for Leopard 2A7V. And they are different compared with the ammo for the 2A4

The good information is that I have initially designed the ammo for the 2A4 too before I decided to build the 2A7V. :wink:

Thnx Günter for your reply about the ammo.
I don't have the knowledge to do 3d printing and I don't have a 3d printing machine.
So I'll get back to you about the ammo 👍🏻.
First is getting the leopard and starting building it👌🏼😃.
Best regards Fabian
