Definitely some nice new offerings there, the Wespe/leFH18 barrel in particular is very tempting.

This is a big step for Armourscale to start doing the 37mm rounds. They look great in the example photos I do hope they venture into doing the clips and shells for the 40mm bofors gun . Cheers Michael
