Looking for the above. Any thoughts? PP and QRF don't seem to have these. Thanks Joe |

Joe,
If you're talking about Vietnam gun trucks, then Skytrex is pretty much the only game in town.

I thought BF did those as sella? |

Can you be more specific as to what/when/what theater you're looking for? For OIF, we were referring to "gun trucks" as any armed vehicle escorts (HMMWVs etc). |

Chas is just working on the M54 gun trucks now |

Old glory 25's make these in their post World War II US vehicle range. |

Old Glory and Skytrex have then. Advantage for Skytrex is you can buy single vehicles. Nice models. |

Depends on where you live gunnerphil. Skytrex charges $12.50 USD for one truck … I don't even want to think about what international shipping will run. I can use my Old Glory Army card and get three from Old Glory 25s for $15 USD … advantage Old Glory :) |

Good grief! Sorry did not know the difference is that much. |
| BrianW | 12 Jul 2016 11:00 a.m. PST |
Sorry, forgot about Old Glory making those.

Although I am a HUGE Old Glory fan and have many of their 15mm vehicles, I have placed one Skytrex order(there was a free shipping promo going on so I bit)and found the cast to be much, much crisper than the OG casts. However, I misunderstood when I placed the order that Skytrex sells as singles, so even with the bonus of free shipping, I still paid much more than had I just ordered from OG. Even with the difference in quality, the cost difference was/is too great. And I should add that I have not been unhappy with what I have received from OG. They are great people and a great company! :) |

Thanks everyone. Will probably go with OG but Skytrex has a 3 pack of slightly different vehicles which would be nice. The pound is very low against the dollar right now as well.
Much to ponder. Joe PS Brian. Have finished formatting Grunt's Forward. Just need to add pictures. Will send to you for your thoughts. |
