Planning on retasking the Hoffman set up from the Breacher to an M-1. Found the tubes and back plate, (F 58 and F59) Looked up the three tank kits and none of them show the Hoffman being used. Did I miss something? Anybody know what other parts are involved and anything on assembly that is not intuitive?

Noted these parts as well ... but not the "rest".
Better off using the complete set provided in the AFV Club M60 kit which is really nice !



Cheers

Hmmm ... Might either wait till the Shredder is done and see if anything left looks right. (don't want to use something that I really need.). Or use one from one of my Leo kits. The photos reminded me, anybody make an A/M blank fire adapter for the Ma Duece?

The only BFA I know of is with the spare .50 cal. with Academys M113 kit.

The BFA seen in the pic was also taken from the AFV Club M60s kit.

Was scouting out early 80s Reforger pics. I don't see any MGs with BFAs. When did the BFA ccomeinto use? Is that something to do with the MILES ?
