Does (Did) anyone make a 1/35th scale 152mm barrel for the MBT-70/XM803?
I could swear that I saw an aluminum one at the AMPS show in MD three(?) yrs ago.

Sorry Mike, but nobody makes a 1/35 aluminum barrel for the MBT-70. Mainly because nobody makes a 1/35 kit of the MBT-70. The only kit ever made of the MBT-70 was the 1/48 Aurora kit from the 70's. It's very rare, very hard to find, and very expensive nowadays.
At AMPS 4 years ago a scratchbuilt MBT-70 was entered, but that's the only one.

Thanks Matt, that's what I figured.
