Sd.Kfz. 251/9 - Schützenpanzerwagen (7.5 cm KwK37). Equipped with a 75 mm L/24 low velocity gun, using the same pedestal gun mount employed on the StuG III. Nicknamed "Stummel" ("stump"). In 1944, a revised modular gun mount was introduced to facilitate production that also incorporated a coaxial MG42. This gun mount was also used to create the Sd.Kfz. 250/8 variant.

Sd.Kfz. 251/10 - Schützenpanzerwagen (3.7 cm PaK). Equipped with a 37 mm Pak 36 anti-tank gun mount. Issued to platoon leaders as a fire support vehicle.

Sd.Kfz. 251/22 - 7.5 cm PaK40 L/46 auf Mittlerer Schützenpanzerwagen. Fitted with a 75 mm PaK 40 anti-tank gun.

Far as I know there is no 50mm or 10.5cm version, you either will probably get the low velocity 75 mm/L24 or 37mm Pak version which were numerous.

Edited 251/22 could be added, carried 22 rounds of 7.5cm ammo, it equipted the entire Pz Lehr and 2. Pz division - rather then have the 251/9 which were traded to other units.

Wiki is good area to start to get the basic, I had to go through my manual to find the other versions to see if they were not prototypes or not.

Check out the "Puma" scout car, I've been beggin for it for years now, Its got a 50mm L/60 cannon and 8 wheeled scout car, slower then M8 by 10mph but packs a very nice punch.

Adding in the SdKfz 251/x with one of the various AT guns that the Germans mounted on it would be an EASY addition to AH, at least in comparison to adding a new gv.  

This goes for the Su-100, any one of the M4 Sherman variants (105mm anyone?), Jagdpanzer IV, etc etc.

Not mount, tow. It was used to tow these guns and store some ammo or other equipment for them.
