M4A1 T-23 turret Question

OK treadheads,

Got as poser for you. If you were a T-23 turret, what decides whether you get a periscope in front of the loaders hatch? Dragon's M4A1 Operation Cobra shows a plate there and I have photos of both. I was always under the impression that there was ALWAYS a periscope there.

Mark, it depends on the type of loaders hatch used on the T23 turret. IIRC, the periscope only was used on the late-style T-23 with the oval loaders hatch. The earlier T-23 with the split-hatch had an intigrated periscope in the hatch itself.

Pyrman,

Thanks I think. Now I have to go back and see other photos. I am doing mine as a oval loaders hatch so I should be good to go.
