She looks great with its paint on! Now I realize its bigger/longer than your usual builds except for that huge wingy build C-130. Hope you have a space reserved for this beast all set?

Thank you Guy! The way my luck is going that will be impossible.  Only managed to get the detail painting and decals on so far.Went to my LHS for some dull coat and they were out of it.Now I have to order it and wait at least a week for it.  |

Evening guys,sorry for the delay!Having a problem with PB not responding! While debating on trying the LHS again to see if I can get the dull coat I need. I got the ammo cart assembled and primed.I'll say one thing,the PE wheels were a pain in the arse to get centered in the tires,but I prevailed.That's it for now.   Thanks for looking. |

I feel for you Leon! If I was supersticious, I'd say some PE assemblies are the work of the devil - punishment for all the kits we ruined as kids!  |

Leon I can't see any difference between the 2S7 and the 2S7M.
I'll post mind and maybe you can spot something.

Tony,i did a little searching and this is the only differance between the two. 2S7M Malka - An improved variant, which entered service in 1983, that improved the gun's fire control systems, increased the rate of fire to 2.5 rounds per minute, and increased the ammunition load to eight projectiles. |
