I certainly congratule your effort. Not only on this 251, but on the resto of the line.
I'd suggest you to take into account that some people may buy let's say "251 with lot A" A including the MG version, the PAk37mm version and the 28mm AT gun. Those people may want to just built all the 3 gun options but the may want to present any of them on battlefield. Si I'd suggest they can be attached to the hull using the very same mechanism (pin)
Also I won't reduce number parts. People tend to go in panick when the parts to assemble are fiddly, but if they're easy to assemble, nobody will rant about the part number. Please do not mold the spade to the hull just to reduce part numbers.
Finally i can see you have modelled two paralel bars on the front hood. I think those were used on Stuka zu fuss versions. as a guide where to fire the rockets, but were not present on the rest of the 251 versions.
See ya
