Can anyone give me some info/references on the old U.S. 107mm Mortar? I have one that was included in a super old 1/35 Academy M151A2 Mutt and Trailer kit (Not the separate tam35119 kit), which had no instructions on painting details. I wanted to build and paint it finally- after 12 years of being stored). Thank you in advance.

A lot of Academy stuff bears an amazing resemblence to Tamiya

Try this for the Four-deuce

Tamiya separate kit, mortar in Tamiya M106 kit and mortars in Academy M151 are exactly the same parts for M30 mortar. Academy ones are just copies of Tamiya parts.
