Looking good - a nice addition to the range. It’’ll pack some punch on the tabletop!

Ugh.  Just call in a Skyraider, and take it out before they learn how to use the damn thing...

Personally I’d be more worried about the thing behind it. A 175mm shell can really ruin your day and from quite some distance. You would want to rent your local parish hall if you wanted to field it in a game mind you.

I can’t read all the script on the barrel except for the French for dog, interesting; I presume in (ex) ownership of the AVRN hence the language?

It says “ Vua chiến trường” which is Vietnamese for ‘King of the Battlefield’.

Yep, ARVN M107 captured during Lam Son 719. It still exists, I’ve seen it up close at the war museum in Hanoi. Can’t find a better pic, the courtyard area is quite crowded with various bits of kit but of you look carefully you can make it out behind the Il-14 transport plane.

That's one for Tom to write on the side of his M113.

Here it is again, tucked behind an M48. Loads of interesting kit in that museum.

There was also a very interesting tractor based on a PT-76 chassis (last photo). Might be an interesting conversion project.
