Primed?
Posted by Leddy on Thursday, November 26, 2015 7:29 AM

I am building a panther turret into a street fortification called a pantherturm or ostwallturm.  It is made from a later Panther, probably built in 1944 or 1945.  What color would the underlying primer be? Oxide red or grey?  Other?

thanks,

Leddy

Pretty sure oxide-red.

But, the primer on the gun barrel would be a dark gray.
