It is a great kit. I built a bunch of them as farewell gifts when I was in an MLRS Bn. No real issues with it at all. Comes out looking great. Highly recommended.

Good luck with it.

I've had one in my stash for a few years and coincidentally pulled it out to start working on yesterday. It looks like it's going to be a lot of fun - esp. with a HEMTT full of extra loads next to it.

Guess you can't get any better expert opinion than from someone who used to crew one like Gino

Yup, makes a great dio.

Here is one of mine with a HEMMT reloading. (Sorry for the poor pic, it was with a really old digicam a few years ago.)
