I drill at the Gulfport CBC base. I'll have to check that out.

Pretty close to pulling the trigger on a mk2 Humber pig. However, have some questions. A) is the extra mk2 armor removeable? B) what is the top speed? I know i will think up some more later , but any help on these would suffice! Thanks, Ben

I can't beleive I missed that! Wow...

66bug! I sent you a PM a while ago but never heard back from you. I have your horror story in the back of my mind every time I think about purchasing something overseas... Doh! PM sent..

That is exactly what will happen. However, just the other day they went crazy and shot a 15 year old girl over looting pictures, so who knows.

Yeah, they had all sorts of cool stuff but this is SS, home of triple redneck engineering. We can do anything. I designed and built battlebots back in the day for comedy central's TV show using mostly pencils and engineering paper. I'm pretty sure I could design something cool...

Many of the more popular and successful armored vehicles are based off of truck frames-basically custom made armored bodies bolted onto heavy cargo truck frames. The M53/59 praga, OT64, BRDM2, OT65, Tatrapan, Saxon, Humber Pig, Peacekeeper,piglet, V100, etc are all armoured bodies on truck...

Could you contact me about a transportation qoute? Looking to move some armor...

Also destroys the bearing underneath and causes any/all lubrication to exit the pin housing.

I miss the man :(

How much is it running to bring one to a port in the US? Peter boys and Duncan Nicholson are running in the 60-70k USD for one...

My mercedes manual suggests adding gasoline to the diesel.

Yeah, I think so too. I just like the fact that it's basically a truck with an armoured body slapped on. I could get a ferret or a Humber... I'm shooting for the humber based on the fact I can carry 8 friends with me.

I talked to a few individuals over on HMVF and they liked the pig. They said it was underpowered and the brakes sucked, since they were never upgraded from the original. But it was a solid design.

Could you elaborate? The b60 is a fairly good engine. Yeah, it doesn't do too well offroad, but 14000 pounds over 4 wheels won't. I'm interested in one because it's a fairly simple vehicle and has more room than a ferret...

Some ferrets were equipped with recoilless rifles, fwiw. (Jordanians and French foreign legion)

My kind of EOD is shooting suspicious objects with the mounted 40mm mk19/.50 cal m2hb in my turret or throwing a grenade at it :) Not sitting down and playing with it!

Ehh it sold for 12k later..again.

Holy smokes that Saladin went for 18100 dollars! That's a STEAL! :evil:

The Saxon is a big funky looking 4x4 truck, just like the vehicle it replaced (Humber pig) so engine swaps aren't that hard. It's a little more complicated for the Saracen/Saladin.
