I wouldn't.  Fillets are for surfaces.  :P

Jason

Like 2D surfaces?  Like the red paint on the side of a cab?   :ashat:

And besides, McJaco was remembering the fully curved scheme and forgot the angular scheme.  The fillet is his backup plan I'm helping him get out of the hole with.   ;)

The thing that bugs is that the NMRA has a paint diagram available for download that has this info on it.  :facepalm:

I did forget about the angle scheme.  I'd think the curved scheme would be the one they used on the gp38.  Either way, the angle is still off.

I thought the 38-2s were delivered before the 'Hockey Stick" scheme came about but I'm not finding much.


I guess the SOO didn't get 38-2's until the late '70s so the 'Hockey Stick would have been they're first scheme.  Also, the first 10 units had the red "SOO" letters.

That would require actual research on AZLs part... it's far easier and cheaper to just borrow the stuff already done by somebody else... of course, you also get the errors they that somebody else made too.

Well if we're gonna nit pick the GP38-2, or so they call it, anyone else notice the missing water sight gauge?

Remember all the flak Walther's got with their GP38-2 when it was missing?

It is there! It is painted white, but the site gauge is there. You can see it easier on the Milwaukee.

You're right.  The GP38s did come in the Hockey Stick.  I stand corrected.  Now if the angle was correct.    :P

They probably left it off to distract you from the Dynamic Brake.  :)

Jason.



Sorry, had to do it.
