This version of the Payton howitzer has truncated hydraulic pistons. I've seen this mostly in Miner Industries boxed sets but I do have one original header bag set of Payton Army men which includes this piece with the shortened pistons. That tells me that the tooling was changed before Miner Industries got a hold of it.

All the detailing is the same on both
That little piece of plastic sticking up at the rear of the arms is just a piece of stray mold release plastic/flash I didn't bother to remove.
