Hi all,

Who makes the best 1/72 US M7 105 SP priest please.

They seem to come in and out of production rather unexpectedly!

UK supplier please, and not 1/76

Thanks.

The only one I know of, and hard to find, is Italeri x2 set either as a Priest or defrocked Priest.
Believe Ready to Roll has a resin model (as well as a Sexton). Neglected vehicle in 1/72 plastic it would seem.

The Italeri ones can be made in to nice models, and Cpl Overby's MOTOR POOL makes or make a nice conversion/detail set for the 2 pack as well.

"Makes or made" I mean .. I was seeing them on ebay a lot but couldn't find the Cpl Overby kit today .. but even with out that kit, just a bit of detailing and a good paint jobs makes for a nice M7.

I don't know if this helps you but there are quite a few pre assembled / pre painted 105mm Priests on ebay. Some are expensive but some are also cheap too. Sorry I can't post any links to them but I got about 50+ hits with a simple worldwide search.

I think Ken's operations are somewhat up in the air for the time being:

Well Ken if you read this .. I've been there bro … hope things get better for you soon.

I'm sorry for you Ken, I really hope that you have better luck in the future…

On the other hand, M7 Priests were only produced by Italeri As far as I'm concerned. Their are ready-made ones going for $22 USD on Amazon.com by Easy Model. So depends on how much you need them…

Hornswoggler11 Sep 2014 6:14 a.m. PST

Yes, here's hoping Ken can get back on his feet soon…
