Hi;

For which kit are you asking for, As for the Gun its the D-10 100mm; And there are several sources. The best IMHO is Model Point's 100mm D-10 W/rifleing, but it will be Hard to find. Most AM companys will stepulate which kit there Barrel is made for.

CHEERS; MIKE.

Hi guys,

Thanks for the replies,

Mike for the Tamiya kit, the issue I have is all my star decal sets have the "normal" DT 10 barrel found in the Tamiya 55, the legends kit is one without the "fume" extractor & looks like it may have a tiny counter weight ring around the end of it.

Cheers Mike

Hi Mike;

The Early D-10 did have the Counter Weight on the End, later Mks; did not. As for the Tamiya kit, is it accurate for A early T-54. Turret wise it may not, early T-54s had A Cut out rear Turret overhang. In any case your Legend detail set should be just fine. Have you tried A Google search on the T-54, if Not then it mite be of some Help !!

GOOD LUCK; MIKE.
