This kit over all has little flash with large seam lines on some parts. I have found step two of the turret assembly part F-1/2 is shaped different then the art shows so extra attention is a good idea. More to come cheers m8

Nice looking build so far. That F1-2 and F1-3 issue looks like a miss run on the casting of the mold. Some flat sheet styrene could get you the missing portion scratch-built, just a thought.

Looking good mate.
Do you need this thread and your other one merged? Or are they meant to be separate?

awesome! I have this kit in my stash, I'm saving it for the Desert Rats build later this year. Definitely gonna pay attention to this one! I'm thinking of doing the M1A1HA.
Can you show some photos of the fit issue you were talking about?
Thanks!
