It is out of stock at Squadron, but listed in their current catalog, which may mean they expect a restock. http://www.squadron.com/NoStock.asp?item=CZRA016

Didn't AFV Club announce one a while back in their older catalog along with their M40? I know it's not there now, but I do remember somebody announcing one.

I was told that some time ago but it never panned out.

Keep an eye on ebay. I have a M41 "Gorrilla" on the shelf. Picked it up on ebay for less than what you will pay at Squadron. Do a search on "resin". Most of the resin stuff has sellers in Hong Kong. Their price even with shipping can be very reasonable.
