Question for those that know: My experience with the 106mm RR was when they were mounted on the M151A1C 1/4 ton truck. The rifles we had were a dark gray metal finish, a color I have seen in images of other 106mm rifles. Were the Marine tubes also painted similar to this build?
Thank you for your greetings and helping me feel welcome. I am an Aussie, 76 and been modelling all my life. I have entered a couple of comps and come away with the odd gold, silver and bronze, but my crowing achievement was ‘Peoples Choice’ with a diorama of a B-17G being re engined for the final trip back to the USA being declared ‘war weary’. !
Welcome to Armorama Kerry. Excellent dio!
Welcome to the forums Kerry. Cracking Dio of the B17… Very impressive matey
Wonderful job.
I notice in photo of ammunition that perforated shell casing appears to be black.
Looks really good.

Wow, you are right. They fit tight, but will they stay that way.
Your probably right.
So glad you posted this build. I just ordered the kit. I plan on converting to RC using a Tamiya 1/25 RC Panther for running gear etc. I’ll have interior parts to offer if anyone is interested ( except the ammo rounds ).
