I am in need of a M256A1 barrel for Trumpeter's M1A1HA. I can only find the Barrel Depot offering, for a different brand. Are there any options I have not explored, beyond dealing with the seam?

RB Models or Voyager. But why spend money on that dog?...

I'm going to build a knocked out tank. And, I'm looking for a challenge.

I have the amorscale one - it's really nice and comes with the correct mantlet, but I think it's getting hard to find.

While on the topic; would the turret from Dragon's M1A1 AIM be suitable. The hull got botched and left me with quite a few spares.
