Need one (1) set of correct decals to complete a Viet Nam era M110 (not the A1 or A2
versions), preferably from a domestic (USA) source.

Thanks for any recommendations or offers to sell.

Thanks Rob. I found MecModels and note they are based in the Netherlands, not clear if
they have a US based distributor as the website is rather basic, and having had less than
desireable results ordering from outside the US I prefer to buy from domestic sources.
Their M110 decals look good, although I only need decals for one kit, not 4 different
M107’s and 4 different M110’s.

Tamiya USA carries the M107 reboxed kit that has Vietnam era decals. Perhaps you can order those decals from them?

Thanks again Rob!

Will be calling Tamiya America Customer Service tomorrow - their customer service does not
accept requests for replacements via e-mail, which seems a bit strange. Kit is out of
stock - hope they have decals available.

The 175mm gun's barrel appears to be extraordinarily long - wonder how many rounds it
could fire before having to be refurbished or replaced?

From what I remember about gun tube wear, there is an EFC or equivalent full charge as opposed to a true number of rounds fired. I know since artillery can change the charge, it depends on the type round and the charge that was used.

I am more familiar with tank guns. There was a different EFC factor based on the type of round fired, sabot or heat, training round or service ammo.

Good news - one set of M107 decals are in the mail from Tamiya! Was surprised decals were
available when the kit is out of stock. Thank you for the suggestion.
