That looks like a T-64 or T-80, so this could be very correct.
philosophosaurus
Most certainly. That is a T62 Alpha chassis most likely the 1984 modification just looking at the angle of the front of the turret.

that's a russian milsurp tank in the picture. they're relativly inexpensive, but the shipping is nearly the same cost

There too if you wanna pay for the high end stuff. It'll last like a month but it'll look cool.

if not the US, then Russia. they'll basically sell to anyone the US refuses to touch (or at least used to)

You can currently purchase an M1A2 Abrams main battle tank from the US military surplus. Used, runs, $70,000. Cannon lacks firing pin

Dude, look up near by machine shops, there's bound to be a job shop that's willing to take it, even if it's just for s&g because tank
geekontwowheels
How difficult would it be for someone to replace the missing firing pin? Legality aside, obviously.
1metalnation
A decent machine shop could do it, price will vary based on location
FellsApprentice
you can used a nail as a firing pin for regular guns, It's really not that hard to build a bigger one that fits in the cannon
geekontwowheels
So it's not like the firing mechanism is a total loss, it's just *currently* working... I see...
tefftlon
That tank looks Russian
paxc151
It is
BuckeyeBTH
It certainly started out as Russian/Soviet. Could have come from any of the ex-soviet nations though
teklanis
It's a T-55. Takes diesel. Enough armor to stop pretty much all modern small arms. Can definitely drive over a car.
fe1od1or
Looks like a T-54 to me.
teklanis
Turret curves all the way to the ring, bore evacuator on tip of cannon, and grenade launchers. It's a T-55, mate.

Ah, okay. Still not great at the whole tank-spotting thing.
