I once looked at one of those and counted just 153 links in the tracks. That is 4 less then what the Army considered worn out!!

I use my carrier regularly and will wear out the tracks one day, same as most of us who use it as what it was made for and not as a static display piece...
With worn tracks it will end as just that!

Hello Marc,

Here the same, the tracks will wear out, casting new links should not be that expensive, when the numbers are high enough. There was someone on the forum who has spend some time in looking for casting new links.

Cheers

Hendrik
