Most 20th century wargamers work at 20mm scale, so if you want to
buy 25mm stuff you may have a problem finding it. Of course you
could just down size so a (20mm) 105mm becomes like an (25mm) 81mm 
or equivalent.

OTOH a mortar is, what?... a tube, a bipod, a baseplate and maybe
a little hand computer to crunch the trajectory. Is this such a 
difficult thing to model from scratch?
