Gents,
If you recently purchased AFV's M109A2 Paladin (Kit No. AF35109) I am in need of your HELP! I desperately need the M1A1 Collimator aiming device that comes with this kit. I need it for my Trumpeter USMC M198 diorama. It's for a Gunnery Seargent who is about to retire. AFV is the ONLY kit maker to make that device in ANY scale! If you are willing to part and trade or accept my $$$ for this I would be forever endeared to you. Please let me know.

Sincerely,

Coporal Rod Rendon, USMCR

I dont know why my user Bravo114 did not pop up on my original post. Anyway, I'd love to hear any feedback from you guys.

Thanks,

Corporal Rendon, USMCR

First off, it is not an M109A2 Paladin. The M109A2 is just a howitzer, it doesn't have a name. The current, M109A6 version is named the Paladin.

The M1A1 Collimator is a separate item from the M109A2 kit- right? It's just a bonus item included in the box? If that's the case and it is not needed to build just the kit, I have a spare. Just PM me your address and I can mail it by Wednesday.

Sorry Gino, I'm just a towed M198 type. Never fired mechanized howitzwers.
