Another "rare" item to add to your list might include the M2 limber for the 155mm Gun or 8in Howitzer. Almost all the display guns in the USA have the Limber M5, I can only think of one right now that has the M2 limber (the Long Tom at the USS Alabama display).

Hi AJ! Hi Folks!

Do you have the M65 Atomic Cannon with transporters at the Albuquerque, NM Atomic Museum?

There where two 75mm Automatic Sky Sweepers here at Ft. Bliss, TX.
One was shipped to Ft. Still, OK. and one is still here. Both are in bad shape, missing a lot of parts.

90 mm AAA guns:
Ft. Bliss has one M2 90 mm AAA out in front of the musuem.
A M1 and a complete M2, that had been restored by a private owner, where shipped to Ft. Still, OK.

Ft. Bliss did have a restored 120mm AAA gun that was shipped to Ft. Still.

Sorry about not posting photos or links, for some reason, I can't get the photos or links to post to this DG.

Sgt, Scouts Out!
