    Mid Ohio Military Vehicle Show July 23rd & 24th 2010

    Wow, that machine truck is awesome. He could earn a small fortune taking it to ATV races. Those guys are always tearing up something that needs turned.

    universal camouflage

    There is no such thing as a universal camo. You just end up with something that doesn't work most of the time; universal waste of effort. The German patterns were very terrain-specific.

    Are Wiesels being released now?

    VEBEG is a private firm licensed to do disposal. One of very few. I doubt you will ever see armor go this route, however. Wiesels are still very much in use and will be for a long time. There are not so many that they would reduce numbers especially when they are deployed to Afghanistan.

    Are Wiesels being released now?

    Yes, first of all you have to be a registered German company.

    Are Wiesels being released now?

    I doubt very much it would be cheaper to maintain than a CVRT. I've had 11 CVRT's and and AUDI. No comparison. Even with shipping, CVRT parts are pretty cheap.

    Are Wiesels being released now?

    Those test models are on loan and will not ever be released but shipped back to Germany.

    Importing a BMP-1

    Approved ATF Form 6, and JAGRO Import brokerage in Baltimore is all you need. You do not anyone else. And some crossed fingers as buying anything from Boys is a risky proposition.

    New V-100

    Always remember Rory, 90% of a project's effort is the last 10% of the built. Always been true, always will be. After owning 18 british armored vehicles, I have always appreciated the amazing simplicity of the V-100. Its what Americans do best: Tough simple vehicles. The Russians learned it...

    ACU camo?

    Crye Precision does not license MultiCam, they require you buy all the materials in MultiCam from them. Besides, no one is going to care about a one off truck. If you were cranking them out for profit it might be different.

    ACU camo?

    Digital camo, sure. As for ACU, there is no way around it; it sucks, it is useless, and the sooner its gone, the better for our soldiers. Stupid idea. Gravel road camo! Sure. Multicam is worlds better in Afghanistan at least, but not many other places. The Marines and Canadians got it right.

    UAZ 469 parts and parts source needed in Iraq

    Good luck on that. The mechanic will probably a lot on sources. These guys are usually well connected.

    UAZ 469 parts and parts source needed in Iraq

    They may have had a wired a secret power switch for theft prevention. 469s are easy to hot wire and commonly stolen in most parts of the world.

    UAZ 469 parts and parts source needed in Iraq

    2010 Haspin Multimedia Thread

    It was fun seeing a GPW being driven the way it was designed to do. Get tired of MV shows where people treat them like an Auburn or something.

    Had a storm blow through late in the afternoon to cool things down and take care of the dust!
