A long term research project: is it possible to backdate the M19A1 to the M19, using the Bronco 1/35 35148 US M19A1 Twin 40mm Gun Motor Carriage?

I am aware the the M19 didn't see operational service during WW2.

I have the Allied-Axis Photo Journal 25, but this doesn't often distinguish between the M19 & M19A1 in the photos.

Are there any M19 specific TM's available?

NB, I would need the exact download location & TM no, as the US TM scource I know of doesn't allow searches from overseas.

Thanks in advance.

I am assuming you can, but personally, I have no idea.  You really need to be looking for Duck Hunters, Air Defense Artillery dudes.  The M19 was not part of the Field Artillery.  FA and ADA were/are distinctly different branches.

Gino, thank you for your reply.

From my limited refs so far, deleting the APU and turret located radio shelfs are the major visual points, but not enough info for more tha that.
