Star decals Africa corps M3 half tracks

After a quick primer on the M2 and M3 halftracks, I'd say Star Decal got the illustrations correct, looks to me they are M2.  The mistake was labeling the set as M3.

Dragon did release an M2 in 1996, but you best read reviews, or if someone else comes along to provide a comment.

yeah I think it's an M2 the only difference between the M2 and M3 was the M3 had an elongated haul.

US forces in Tunisia had both M2 and M3. AFAIK 8th Army only had M3s, and not many.
