Rules
- Be respectful and inclusive.

- No genocide or atrocity denialism.

Officially it is called 106mm in all of the documentation. However it is in reality 105mm. The name change was made to help prevent mixing up ammunition with the M27 which is also 105mm. So it is one of those things where "yes but no." no matter what you call it.
