    Deuce gun rack in cab

    As the mounts sit, no. There is no way to use them unaltered to lock the weapon in place. That being said, I'm sure there is a way to do so with modification and level of security desired. It also depends on where it (the mount) is located. I can think of a couple different ways to make a...

    Deuce gun rack in cab

    Give the specific weapon you want to mount. Maybe someone who has the weapon and the mounts can give the answer ou are looking for. Easy answer is if it has a long wide body (Barrel stock combo), it'll probably work. If the stock is short as is on some shotguns such as a Winchester Model 50...

    The Military is starting to scare me...

    Sit back, relax, you wound me up so I got to school you, gently, on Air Force Maintainers; not all are rear area jet or missile fixers. Before you guys raise a ruckus, you're our top cover and you have my utmost respect. We can not do our job without those A-10s running top cover. We can't do it...

    The Military is starting to scare me...

    X1, X2 or X3?..never can get them right so i won't try. And your duty weapon isn't even taken out to the range...I don't mean the great big one, that one goes to Vandy and only Vandy. Hope it never goes anywhere else.

    Deuce gun rack in cab

    Now in a helicopter, specifically the CH-53 and CH-46, you better put that muzzle on the floor. Crew Chief sees you pointing it anywhere else a large can of whoop *** is going to open up and much pain will be delivered. Once had my Crew Chief (I was a First Mech) beat the crap out of a Major...

    Deuce gun rack in cab

    My one truck with mounts is a 72 WO/W. It has a mount to the right of the glove box and one to the left rear of the drivers seat. I don't like the drivers seat location, couldn't get to it in time to tag the deer or elk. Both my other trucks do not have mounts and by the looks of them, they...

    New V-100

    Danger Ranger, your quote is authored by Chris Kyle. Is the book still in print? Just wondering, his last name and mine are the same. Curious to see if we're related. And he is 100% correct. Remove driver, vehicle stops, sometimes fairly quickly, sometimes not. If said driver is cruzing in a...

    New V-100

    They replaced my A's with former Navy RH-53D's. When the Navy picked up their E models, the Marine Reserve Squadrons got them. Sweet birds from what I heard. Only time I played with the D's was at Iwo Yuma during WTI. Scary how much power they had after our under powered A's. Let's see the...

    I won't give you any guff about you standing on a slung load. We did it all the time in the Marine Corps and the Air Force. Of course slightly different load tests and procedures to include duration, weight, etc. Point is you tested it, it works. Thank you for doing it, now I have an...

    2012 vin info thread

    Semper Fi Marine! Looks like a Marine Corps truck to me. If it is, the 6 digit number is the truck BuNo or in plain English, it's Bureau Number. All equipment in my time in the Marine Corps had a six digit number. For example the BuNo on one of our CH-53A's was 153285. It's "bumper number"...

    Oh wise and munificient CARNAC, I have a conundrum for you. My 1972 M35A2, which you have already identified to the 835th engineers, ND NG has a rather odd identification code underneath the last coat of paint applied by the 835th. The number/letter combination is a follows: WPIETO D0008. It...

    Getting mounted-where do you mount yours?

    One of my trucks had a radio system in it (M1009 doesn't count, we're talking Deuces). The base was under the co-drivers seat and judging by the holes on the side of the truck, the antenna was bolted to the passenger side, back towards the rear of the bed. Just a guess tho. If yours had an...
