towns03 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Hello HMVF crew, I'm in the process of buying a Russian (I think) D-30 Howitzer (pictures below). we're having trouble locating all the pertinent info on this rig for importation purposes, though, and I hope someone here can help. Where will we find the serial number stamped on this thing?? there's a number on the breech, but it doesn't look like a serial#. Also, we can't even find a data plate with the manufacturer listed. Any ideas? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ot-90 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 the data tag should be on the inside of one of the legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Grundy Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Where are you going to import it to ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
towns03 Posted October 13, 2015 Author Share Posted October 13, 2015 thanks, 90- Bob, I'm importing to the USA.:-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Grundy Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Are you aware of the ATF de-milling requirements ? Unfortunately that breechring will have to be completely severed at right angles to the barrel and a hole cut in the chamber equal to the bore.

towns03 Posted October 14, 2015 Author Share Posted October 14, 2015 well, I'm aware that there are deactivation requirements, but I don't know specifics on this model yet. the ATF is VERY slow in sending out deact diagrams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
towns03 Posted October 14, 2015 Author Share Posted October 14, 2015 I'm also looking for American WWII artillery if anyone has anything for sale. American guns are more tricky to import b/c I believe they require approval from the State Department... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
