Looking for a couple of spare Sherman parts

Has anyone got the parts from the F sprue of the M4A2/Composite/Firefly IC kits,
F17 & F09
(the M34A1 mantlet & gun mount) going spare & be prepared to part with them - I would be grateful - happy to pay postage or perhaps I've got something in the bits box that you're after? PM me if you do.
Cheers,
Matt

Don't have those parts I'm afraid but , I do have the Sherman mantlet , barrel from the BA plastic Churchill in the parts box . If you can't find the Rubicon bits these might work with a little tlc

I had a look, as I had several F-sprues. I don't seem to have kept any of the unused mantlets or gun mounts, unfortunately. If I come across them (or pick up another kit with that sprue) I'll let you know.

@Ballardian
I thought maybe I can help, but sadly I do not have those parts (F09 and F17) among my spares. However, I do have another Sherman kit (#280060) that I have not assembled, but I have not decided if I will assemble the early (F02 and F39) or later (F09 and F17) mantlet. Do you need these part right away?

Many thanks Pinky, as you said, please let me know if they turn up (& you're prepared to part with them).
Thank you Tracks - I'm not in any real hurry, so if you decide that you don't need them please let me know.

Hello smant61, that's a very generous offer & I'd love to take you up on it (for one of the F-sprues). Firstly I'm in the UK - is that ok for you? - I'd obviously be happy to reimburse you for the postage - let me know & I'll PM you an address & many thanks.

Many thanks to everyone who had a root through their bits boxes, yesterday the missus surprised me with an M4A2 kit, so I've now got the parts I need, I appreciate the effort you went to.
Thanks again,
Matt
