    M114 sniper platform

    Certainly makes sense to me. However, for every reason we can find that sworn law enforcement personnel should not have armored vehicles, is at least worth five reasons why the average citizen should not have them either :shock: We might as well say that police and other public safety personnel...

    M114 sniper platform

    Evidently, the M114 was tinkered into a robot at one time :shock: http://www.nosc.mil/robots/land/gsr/gsr.html

    M114 sniper platform

    These M114s were in Germany at the time of the photo, as I was told. As you can see....they do swim :shock:

    M114 sniper platform

    The camo machine has a TBI 350, 240 HP and the second machine we are doing has a 300+HP 6.0L. Both has a computer controlled 4L80E transmission. Either is quite a step up from the 140HP 283 with the "old school" hydramatic four speed. Elwenil, you are exactly right 8)

    M114 sniper platform

    If you are like most of us, there will be no retirement :P Anyway, this particular machine was not much more than paperweights when I got it :lol:

    M114 sniper platform

    Well put Recovery4x4 :D On the last two M114's we are doing, we have switched to grease. Glad you like the camo, and we have already built another sniper platform for this machine to replace the one that we donated to Gwinnett County SWAT. We will also be posting pictures of our latest custom...

    M114 sniper platform

    It's at least an A1with the xm26 cupola, but could also be a A1E1...which I have seen with all three cupola variants. I have see pictures of the M114 in water, but I have not talked with anyone who has done it. Bradyracing, looks like you have been busy 8)

    M114 sniper platform

    Thanks Massm35a2, we are also moving forward on the second machine...which should be more impressive in many ways than the first. As far as the ignition systems, the two customs are OEM GM electronic. I think I have a couple NOS military distributors here for the small block.

    M114 sniper platform

    Well, here is the sniper shield on its new home. The Gwinnett County Sheriffs Office had their track on display at this years Memorial Day parade. There is also talk about some custom work, now that they have seen ours :wink: I will keep you posted.

    M114 sniper platform

    Here is the latest creation on the track. This sniper platform will reduce exposure to the threat via glance armor while giving placement of the shooter more versatility. This particular piece will be donated to a local LE agency, while two additional (not pictured units) will remain with WGTi
