I'd like to buy a new XM-177 howitzer, but don't see any sellers)

You mean the M777 towed/airlift gun that the Marines have been playing with? Neat, and under evaluation by Finland, among others, but I think the Finns are really hoping for a chance at some Swedish Archer 155 wheeled SP guns. I know a fella after one of the German 150mm guns used in the Band of Brothers TV series. I'm not sure how demilled it is, but it'd sure look neat being towed by his BTR-70....
