m416 in 8' pickup bed?

[camp9]

I'm picking up a M416 this week. Got about a 6hour drive to get it. There is no spare, was thinking about setting it in the back of my truck. Will it fit?

Yes that is how i brought mine home, put the hitch over the tailgate and strap it down good!

I found this if you're still curious about the dimensions.

Just be careful of who is operating whatever you are using to load it. An old (very old) friend of mine used his bucket loader and a chain to put one in my pickup and almost tore the side off the truck. I do my own loading and unloading now.

Thanks guys, that's what I'll do.

Thought I'd add these picks if anyone has the same question. It hauled good this way.

Picked up one of the last M416's in service from GL in Wisconsin. Glad to get it. Need to pick up a Fender or make one, and a tail light and it'll be ready to go. A paint job would be good to
