The M4 Sherman, formally Medium Tank M4, was the primary tank used by the United States during World War II. It was also distributed to the Allies via lend-lease. It evolved from previous medium and light tanks, and was the first American medium tank with the main gun mounted on a fully traversing turret. The howitzer version was built by Chrysler in 1944-45 with a production run of 3,039 vehicles. These tanks remained in service well into the 1950s.

Packing and shipping is based on a weight of 1 pound and is only my out-of-pocket cost. I pack and ship the same day payment is received. I'm not like some Internet sellers who build big profits into shipping and screw the buyer.
