Hey, I really enjoy the StuG IIIA and G that I bought in the recent sale, but I’ve been thinking, considering it doesn’t have an MG and, the historical ammo capacity was a lot higher than 40 rounds, why why not give it like 5 extra rounds of each type as a little treat? You know, for being such a good little tank.
: 3 that’s all
Yeah sources vary a bit, but most Ive read the ammo count is more in the 44-55 round range.
Best bet is to find some technical documentation for it to back it up so it can be justified.
Ammo loads above 44 are for the later Stugs, never for the A model.
Presumably once they figured out how useful it was the rearranged the internals to allow more of hte larger ammo to be carried.
