ANY image transform operation does distort a image in a bigger or
minor way. You have 3 possibilities to solve this "problem":
1. Using a existing rotate function (best thing is to work always
with the original for most less quality loss when rotating)
2. You paint the tank and the turret in every desired angle (be aware
of rotate functions inside paint programs! ;) )
3. You use OpenGL and do it vector based
the easiest way is using the existing rotate function: easy to use
and works fast.
Thats all I can say about it.

How about using: pygame.transform.rotozoom(Surface, angle,

The angle can be positive or negative, depending if you want to
move the turret clock- or anti-clockwise. I assume the tank is a
different sprite than the turret. Dunno, if 0 or 1 for scale will
not make it zoom. But thats probably the funtion you are looking
for. ;)
Just my 2 cents

I'm trying to make an overhead tank battle game. The biggest
problem I'm running into is rotating the turret over the tank
chassis. In order to do so, I need to be able to specify the
axis on which the turret image will rotate instead of just
rotating around the middle. The PysGear library seems to have
solved this problem however I would like to avoid using an entire
library to solve one problem. Any info on this issue will be
greatly appreciated.

I am already using the rotate function. From what I understand,
rotozoom distorts the image.
