I'm looking for the .50 cal feed chutes that mount on both sides of the B-29 tail turret. They look like this:

Did any one else notice the B-29 tail stinger at Reading last year during the WWII Weekend. Anyone know the story on that.

Was it just the turret or the entire tail section? If it was just the turret it may have been Fred's, who posts here as turretmuseum. If it was the entire tail, I don't know. I'm the closest to Reading with B-29 tails, and it wasn't me.

Mustangdriver, can you elaborate on that? I know MAAM has an NOS B-29 upper or lower turret, but I never noticed a B-29 tail turret there.
