Hi Guys ,

I am thinking about purchasing the Bronco US 155mm Howitzer M114A1 (Vietnam War) version and have a question or two ,

Seems to me that i remember reading somewhere that the M114A1 was actually just a M1A1 , but with a name change during the Vietnam war ! Am i correct on this ?


Also are the grooves (rifling)inside the barrel correct for a Vietnam era gun or should it be smooth ?


Thanks for any info that anyone can provide .


regards
JOEY
