armament for MV's...

[emmado22]

All,

Anyone got any good sources for demilled/dummy machine guns? SARCO is all out of M2HB dummies...

 

[bozozimbo]

The Sportsmans Guide catalog I got today has pretty nice looking full size resin M2 50 cal dummies.

Shotgun news usually has lisitings for demiled M2's, M1919, and other MG's. Can be a little pricey.

mv mag has some adds

SARCO had most all the parts to build a dummy M2. They even had un-useable parts that could be welded back for a dummy gun. It will still be expensive, I think I'd go for the cast resin replicas to save money.

What about an airsoft M249?

IMHO a M249 is a POS. Nothing gets attention like a M2.

 

[emmado22]

I agree with Crazy, the M2HB commands respect. The MK-19 is sweet too, but I like the fifty!

SARCO is out of some of the main parts you need to build a M2.. But I found someone else than might have something cooking in January.

I have a resin M2 on my M715 that I got off ebay. The guy puts them up every so often. I got it really cheap and it looks nice when mounted. Nobody ever notices that it's resin until I tell them.

Did you get the resin gun from Jon Shoop? I know he makes them and they are amazingly accurate right down to the machinig marks.

 

[67Beast]

I don't remember the guys name, but he was in Washington state. Gun was only $150 on ebay.

 

[emmado22]

humm, might have to check into that. Got any info on the seller?

There is a all metal replica for sale on ebay right for about $300.00, item # 6586244743

 

[wallew]

Or, go for a real one... Yes, large NV mounted to it. Yes, that's a thirty sticking out the front passenger window. Yes the fifty is real. A hoot to shoot, as the truck inches back. Mel used to have TWIN FIFTIES on the rear, but it kept pulling up on the mount, so he stepped down a little.

 

[Low-Tech-Redneck]

A resin replica showed up a while back with no bids, and a buy it now price of like only $180 or somthing, iI shoulda jumped all over that one, but we hadn't even begun to restore the M35 at that point

humm, might have to check into that. Got any info on the seller?

Seller is rmedges2lo0, he has one right now up with slight damage with a buy it now of $125

Guys:

There's a place up in Spooner, Wisconsin that makes and sells the resin guns. All type's too and very reasonable prices. I think a Thompson goes for $150.00 and a 45 for $50.00. The guy's name is Kevin Kronlund and he also sells returned WW II trucks. He's at www.armycarsusa.com . Oh, the Ma Deuce goes for $325.00.

Yes, that's a thirty sticking out the front passenger window. quote]

Yes that is a live .30 out the front. Ask him why I'll never ride in the passenger seat into town again

 

[dozenjeeps]
