Cannon Questions?
If you see an irregularity of any kind with
a cannon barrel or mortar tube, call the
folks at the Watervliet Arsenal Product
Assurance Engineering Division: DSN 974-
5587 or (518) 266-5587, fax DSN 974-5261
or (518) 266-5261. Or
e-mail them at:
gunrecords@wva.army.mil
They’ll give you the technical guidance you
need.
SCs on Internet

on the Internet. The only exceptions are
SCs for medical or TMDE equipment.
Access the SCs on the Logistics Support
Activity (LOGSA) home page at:
Just click on
Publications & Forms.

HMMWV Distribution Box
The new power distribution box and
cable assembly, NSN 6110-01-446-7125, for
HMMWVs is now available separately. Get
the distribution box with NSN 6110-01-446-
7126 and the cable with NSN 6110-01-446-
7124. Make a note in Fig 43 of TM 9-2320-
280-24P-1 until it’s updated.
Rack for M240B Machine Gun
The M240B machine gun doesn’t have its
own storage rack. But you can have support
modify the M249 machine gun’s
rack, NSN
1095-01-197-7902, so that it works for the
M240. Directions for modifying it are on
the Army Electronics Product Support
homepage at:
Click on
Maintenance, then
T
ACOM
Authorized Equipment Modifications, then
on
Modification Plans for M13 Small
Arms
Racks. Do not try to modify the M60 rack
for the M240B. The M60 damages the M240’s
rear sight.
Blackout Marker
NSN 6220-01-343-1327 gets the front
blackout marker for M915A2-series and
M916A1-series tractor trucks. The NSN
shown for Item 1 in Fig 89 of TM 9-2320-
363-24P brings the wrong marker.
M939 Exhaust Cap
Keeping rain and snow out of M939-series
truck exhaust stacks is a snap with
weathercap, NSN 9390-01-204-1161. Note
this info in Fig 32 of TM 9-2320-272-20P.
