    U.S.M.C gun trucks?

    I'm sure you guys are getting sick of me by now, but can't help showing off my baby. First of 2 Christmas parades yesterday. Derry NH. Next Sunday is Merrimack NH. The steel gun box really helps with decorating. Everything is attached with magnets. My wife loves playing the Grinch and the...

    Veterans Day Parade. Honored that the Manchester police wanted their pictures taken with our truck for their Facebook page.

    U.S.M.C gun trucks?

    So, the summer is over and Reaper attended many shows and parades over the last few months. Actually met a couple of veterans who served on gun trucks. Both gave my truck their blessing. Even though I don't have cab armor yet, they were impressed with the build. The only downside was some of the...

    Added 2 stretchers today. I had first wanted to secure them across the width of the box, but decided to mount them along the length . Shameless plug for Green Iron Road Wear for the custom straps.

    Got to race a HMMWV yesterday with Reaper. Pretty sad that the track officials determined that we only needed a golf cart for a pace car...:confused:

    Sad story.... I just read your post to my college intern. She asked, "Whats a cassette tape?"

    U.S.M.C gun trucks?

    Browsing YouTube yesterday. Came across War Sounds Radio Chatter. One hour of wartime comms. Can only understand bits and pieces but definitely good enough . The problem is getting it off of YouTube. I also came across soundtracks of music associated with the Vietnam War. I need to figure out...

    War Wagon

    After re-reading my question, I realized it was written very poorly. What I meant to ask was about the mounts shown in gun truck photos. They look like just the red primer is applied...or is it faded photos?

    We're the mounts painted red over the standard military red primer?

    U.S.M.C gun trucks?

    Ok, I just ordered an RF-5980 housing with a Bluetooth speaker inside. I want to give people a more immersive experience when on board. Now all I need is some military convoy audio recordings. Anyone have any ideas on this? Yes, I'm insane. Just ask my wife...

    The tubes are 43" which puts the cradle at 48" where the cradle and socket flanges meet.

    U.S.M.C gun trucks?

    Yes. Through the AM-2060 but I'm afraid to turn it on yet. I have visions of it all catching fire.

    U.S.M.C gun trucks?

    I have to figure out an easy way to get the small kids high enough to get their hands on them. I had one kid jump and grab the handles. He just hung there probably realizing that it was a dumb idea.
