Looking for 105 recoiless dimensions

[vermontser]

I'm thinking about making a prop gun out of plastic for my jeep. Have a spare windshield frame I would cut. I'd build a spud gun into it for fun.

I need some close up pics of one and the mount to see if it's something I want to tackle (I live in a project rich environment already).

Any one know of a good source of pics, drawings or dimensions?

The 105 was not around long. There is a lot more info on the 106 that replaced it, Reproductions and actual models are out there for it. Good luck!

Are you thinking of a 106?

Are you thinking of a 106?

Yes, many people seem to use the numbers interchangeable.

Was the M27 a 105 and the M40 a 106?
Which one was more likely mounted in a 53 M38A1?

Thanks for the feed back,

Dean

Perfect. I'll look a bit to see if I can find one locally. If not order one.

Thanks

When I got to the 4TH MARINES in Jan 1963 we had m38-a1 s with 106 s.With-in a few months the m-38 s were all replaced with m-422 mules to carry the 106 s.
