Dragon Magic Tracks for M48/M60 Tanks
Posted by M60_ tanker on Friday, January 17, 2020 3:12 PM

I know alot of people here do not like them, but I do. So if anybody has some for M48/M60 tanks; either style, that you don't want please PM me and I'll gladly pay for them.

Nothing is impossible as long as somebody else has to do it.

I think that all of the 1/35 Dragon M48 & M60 family kits come with DS tracks.

I've got two of Dragon's M48s, the M48A5 and M48A3 Mod B as well as the IDF M60 with ERA. All three of them come with one piece DS tracks, not magic tracks.

US double-pin tracks don't work too well when done as "Magic Tracks" because of the end connectors. When the end connectors are moulded integrally with the track shoe, invariably it's in a flat configuration. When the track link is wrapped around a sprocket or idler, the end connector sticks out straight rather than angling correctly to join the next track link. 

It's interesting to note that the M1A1 AIM kit has Magic Tracks and the M1A2 SEP has DS tracks.

Likewise... I have the M48A1, M48A5, and M60. Again all of those have DS tracks.
