I am new to this forum.

I found this model kit on Ebay ^^

M-1E1 is the prototype which replaced the 105mm rifle cannon on the US MBT M-1 with the 120mm gun made by Rein Metall in West Germany.

It's a classic little kit. I built more than a few of them in the late 80s. I think you left the seam on the gun tube though.

Thanks for reply.

Any suggestion to fix that seam ?

Other than sanding it smooth and repainting? I wouldn't worry about it unless you decide to enter it into a contest or just want to fix it to suit yourself. Chalk it up to a learning experience and apply it to your next build.
