Yes, it can be built without the wading gear. One necessary correction is the gun travel lock. The kit includes the taller version intended for the 76 mm gun and the 105 mm howitzer. The hinges are also in the wrong position (too low on the glacis for this variant). The shorter version seen on the 75 mm variant is included as an unneeded spare part in the Dragon Sherman Firefly, if you have it, or know someone who does (the hinges are molded as part of the travel lock).
