Hi Guys

I have now completed the photo-etch artwork for the Panther IR Scope Stowage Bin and is now available for order with delivery end of March early April. However do to ordering deadlines I need you orders by Monday to include your parts with this batch of photo-etching.

For those that have already ordered the Panther IR Scope the Scope and Bin is offered as a set.

Pan31-A Panther IR Scope ASF
Pan31-K Panther IR Scope as a Kit $300.00
Pan32-A Panther IR Scope Armored Bin ASF
Pan32-K Panther IR Scope Armored Bin as a Kit $175.00
Pan33-A Panther IR Scope and Armored Bin Set ASF
Pan33-K Panther IR Scope and Armored Bin Set as a Kit $450.00

Panther IR Scope Armored Stowage Bin
The estimated thickness of the armored plate was about 15 mm, 2.5 mm in 1:6 scale, this is to thick to photo-etch. The cost of cutting the parts in 2.5 mm brass would make the bin to expensive. I am photo-etching the parts in .030 brass. Once assembled the armored thickness can be simulated by inserting plastic sheet to the interior of the bin and rear of the door.

Pictures are of the plastic prototype.
