Hi,
Here are 2 pics of US M10s (inspired by the blurred photo in the background). Both have the additional sandbag protection which was so typical of US units late in 1944 and early 1945 (as armour, it made difference to the protection as a panzerfaust or AT round would still penetrate - but it did give the crews a bit more confidence).
The M10s were originally built a few years ago, straight out of the box with no frills added (only decals and a basic green paint job - they were needed fast so....). Now overhauled and carry a scratch built breach mechanism in low relief, plus all the other additions (shells, tools, boxes, bedrolls etc) which appear typically in photographs.
Regards,
