Any Australians floating around up to swap some bits? International postage in and out of the Colonies bites hard at the moment.

What kind of M60, Chris. Original model, GHQ, I'm interested in those. Round turret?

I would like some M60 tanks if they are the A2 version if not I could use them for 3rd world armies.

As a former platoon leader of an M60A2 platoon, I can tell you you could not make a worse choice. You are better off with any other model of the tank. A2s were only in service for 5 years for a good reason. They were maintenance nightmares. The rate of fire was wholly inadequate. The caseless ammunition was fragile and had to be handled with care, lest you end up with thousands of beads of powder rolling around the floor of the turret.

Mike,

I am need of a Jagdpanther 88mm gun barrel if any one has an extra. Mine fell behind the work bench and seems to be forever lost.

Of course, I am willing to trade for said item.

I have too many modern French heavy weapons. I do not need a dozen 81mm mortars and I have to review unit organizations but I am sure I will have quite a few more items. I would like more infantry strips in trade.

Going to have some Mistral MANPADs and .50 BMGs. Still looking at and for TOEs.
