Gents,
I'm looking for a spare 1/35 M1A1 Collimator, it comes with the AFV 1/35 M109A2 Howitzer. I need it for my M198 Howitzer diorama. If anyone has a spare they can part with I'd be willing to trade 1/35 personal gear and projectiles or pay $. Please let me know.

Kind regards,

Rod Rendon

do you have a picture of it ? I could dig through some of the spares boxes I have and look and see for you.

Bobby,
Can I email the pics of the parts and the instruction steps to your personal email? I really don't know how to upload pics on the forum.

Thanks,

Rod

It is the device you see in the instructions in Step #31.

Ok, Ron. Thanks for the pic's. I will look around in the spares boxes. Question, does it have to be from AFV club kit ? I may have one in another brands kit and if so you could have it.

Bobby,
To my knowledge only the AFV kit has the collimator included. Crossing my fingers!

I looked. None in the Italeri kit. I quickly checked the spare parts box, no luck. If you don't come across one, I will make a more thorough search in the spares box when I have a little more time.
