It should be a standard M6 periscope, like all the M5 and M4 variants. Are you asking about a special gunners periscope or something? Like most things Sherman, the interior will vary based on upgrades, so a number like that will be tough to come up with.

hi, of course this is helpful, however, Tim, do you think m4a2 has the same amounts of all you listed?
