Hi guys,

In the sixties the US army had a prototype of the XM-765 under the name of PI M-113A1 AIFV.
On this version there was a 20 mm gun installed in place of the enclosed 25 mm turret as on the XM-765.
Does anyone know where to buy such a model of that 20 mm gun ?
I hope that someone knows a company that makes such guns.

Gé,
The 20mm gun should be the same one that was used on the M114A1. I know that Accurate Armour did a M114A1 with the 20mm gun which I think that they retooled (I have one of the old ones). I have been successful in gettting specific parts from AA in th epast. Contact Derek Hansen, explain your dilemma, and he can probably help you out.
