Nice job by Old Guard Painters on the BB starter set and M113's. The latter can only have .50-cals and the optional Dragon missile I believe. The Mk19 40mm grenade launcher isn't standard on the APC in TY.

Very Nice !!!
But the MGs and Mk.19 should have light wash of black, they are much too "bright". They are a dark blue-gray gun metal.

For the Tracks – scroll down look as these pics. TMP link

Rusty tracks with black rubber track pads …

And yes, in the '80s in the US Army our M113s had the .50 with the ability to attach the M47 Dragon MAW.

After serving in 3 Mech Bns and commanding a Mech Co. of M113s, I can be a little picky… evil grin

We only saw pictures the Mk.19.

And Yes the AH64 started to replace the AH1 in the US ARMY in about the mid '80s.

Tow cables are also waaaaaay too shiny…
And not enough "stuff" on them, to be actual Army vehicles…
