Description

US Army M51A2 5-ton 6x6 Dump Gun Truck "Peace Maker".

The M51A2 is a military 5‑ton 6×6 dump truck from the U.S. M39 series, introduced in the 1950s as a heavy-duty off-road hauler. During the Vietnam War, American army combat engineer units converted M51A2 dump trucks into gun trucks – heavily armoured vehicles equipped with multiple machine guns, ammo stowage, and protective cab structures. These served convoy escort and perimeter security roles.

This AFV Club kit utilises parts from the M54A2 5-ton 6x6 Cargo Truck (AF35300) and M51A2 5-ton Dump Truck (AF35322), combined with new-tooled parts for the armour plate box structure which fits into the dump body, plus new weapon mounts for the M2HB .50 Cal Machine Guns (AF35246). Markings included for "Peace Maker" of 585th DT Company, 589th Engineer Battalion, Phan Rang, Vietnam.

My online request was quite involved, but nothing was too much trouble and they were able to supply just what I wanted. Definitely the place to go if personal, human interaction is how you prefer to shop!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rainbow Railways is on my list for the shop that has the items I can’t get down south . So I do browse every now and again . Staff have been very helpful in the past with an order where I had to swap out a container for a similar one . That’s good service as I was notified back then before sending , this allowed me to pick one I recall - simple and job done for the container order . Now today fits the bill for finding the popular wagon , plus a couple more , had one in stock which sold out in my local region . I’ve also found on this site others in the past at great deals too . Can’t complain excellent service.

Ordering online or by phone makes the purchase of any stock item or new pre-order item very easy. Fitting service available for decoders and speakers etc from various suppliers. Highly recommended with excellent staff and every visit is enjoyable and fun, as it should be.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very well priced, quick to dispatch and that's backed up by knowledgeable and service-focused people. When I had a small problem with one of my models (not their fault, rare manufacturer issue) they went above and beyond to get it sorted. Definitely one of the local model railway shops we should be supporting, both in person and online. Recommended without hesitation.
