Dear Half-Mast,
I was told that the
level Vial ±n the M1 A2
FR conTl gunner's
quadrant conta²ns
rad²oact²ve tr²t²um, wh²le
the M1A1 ³s level v²al
does not. Yet the MB2
car´²ng case
u
for
both models has a
rad²oact²ve label on ²t.
I
have the M1A1
quadµnt¶ ·e level v²al
doesn¸t glow ¹n the ºrk»
but that could be due to
age or a leak¼ ½or
sa¾ty³s sake¿ I ÀEally
could use some
