1/16th Russian Ammunition
#16004 T-34-76 Ammo
#16005 T-34-85 Ammo

Reviews by Terry Ashley
New from Hussar Productions are these two ammo sets for the big Trumpeter 1/16th T-34 kits, one set for the T-34-76 and one for the T-34-85.

The T-34-76 set #16004 has four types of ammo with two of each type as well as two empty shell casings which have the top 4mm hollowed out. The quality of the castings is excellent without any blemishes and only the casting blocks to be removed. To add details there is an etched fret with the shell base plate with engraved details plus a decal sheet with shell stenciling as well as a colour illustration of the rounds to aid in painting and decal placement for well detailed ammo rounds.
