Yep, do it all the time. And you do NOT need to disconnect the two batteries.

The Pig's name is well deserved.

This one was sold back in November. Why it is STILL listed, I have no idea.

Failure is an option. What a great line!!

Actually, it looked pretty stupid. A thrown outside track during a power slide like they were doing results in a instant, very instant roll. The passengers standing would have been pitched out and probably squished like a bug. Our hobby of vintage MV's will not be helped in the future with...

Wow, those are all really awesome. What a great collection coming together. I am beginning to think this whole internet thing might work after all.

1. There is NO FFL license required to own a demilled cannon, nor a live one for that matter. It is an approved Form 1, and it is a Transfer. Nothing to do with any license. 2. You can no longer import ANY barrel into the US, rifle, pistol, or cannon. FACT. Whatever might have been legal 10...

It is not illegal to have a demilled gun, but it is no longer legal to import with a demilled gun as before. Now, you can not even import the barrel, cut or otherwise.

I have ridden in several T-72s and T-55s. Anyone over 5'8" 170- my size, will be just plain miserable or not fit at all. These are CRAMPED vehicles and not made for folks over 5'7" 125. It is just not going to happen. The roomiest MBT's on the market are British. No way around it.

A lot of effort and expense went into building this, but when its all said and done, it's fake.. And having a fake anything, Ferrari, Cobra, or Tiger, it gets pretty old real fast always having to say, "It's fake, It's not real." It also has no collector value. For that kind of money, you could...

Great read. Really well done.

Some time in the early 90's I saw photos of a USAF SOF display at Hurlburt showing CSAR/PJ gear including a RATT and some kind of small motorcycle. I think it was a Yamaha and it was Minicycle or even minibike size. It was definitly two wheel, not more. Anyone know what I'm recalling?

Here's some VW Iltis "FAVs", not the Bundeswehr Super Stallion in the background. They can carry two vehicles each.

The FAV concept using Mutts filled an interim need for mobility from a helicopter, either CH-47 or Super Stallion depending upon the service. Some were weapons platforms, others medivac. They referred to them as FAV for moral purposes. The German and Belgian armies did the same thing using the...

The term used was "plummet" not "drop". Big difference.

wreckerman, You are suggesting the value of a Sherman would plummet if m-88's were released to the public? Or for that matter, a 1928 Thompson if M-2HBs were sold off?

I love it when someone throws out "the Government" this or that. There is NOTHING restricted about owning armor in this country. You can buy a Sherman, or Scorpion, or brand new Level IX Mercedes SL-500. It is nonsense to state otherwise. As stated, it takes little to do it yourself, too...

It is what's left of a heat guard.

Hey Lonesome715, You owe me big time now dude. Took me forever to track down a declassified photo like this: USAF SOF used Kawasaki KLT-250's in the mid 80's, around 83-88. Forward air controlers mostly, not PJs.
