You stick to me and I will make you famous!
I have all the manualls....plus some. I spent most of my Marine life in Crash, Fire, Rescue. When the M530C went into retirement, I got as much stuff as I could. I just knew I would have one some day (and I do!!). The down side, is photos, I sent a guy in NJ who had a M530C most of the photos I had so he could make copies.......and never got them back.
I am also starting to pack up every thing I have in my barn as the bride and I are moving next year to our small farm. As I come across firefighting gear that I have 2s of I will let you know.
Take care.

Jason,
Remind FrankUSMC to remind me to take photos of anything on his 530C that you need to see and I'll put it on my website for the two of you... I like crawling around Frank's stuff when I visit his place...

I'll be heading his way in a couple of weeks...

Frank: Did you give that guy in NJ the same warning about returning your photos that you gave me when I borrowed the MB2 info?? If so, you will get them back one day...

Garbee, no he did not get the same warning.....he is the "reason" I give the warning now. I lost all the information on him when our old computer crashed.
Jason, the defference between a M530B and the M530C was the Charlie had the turret (water cannon) on it. That helped out alot on air craft fires. As far as equipment, it just depends on how you want to set your truck up. Is it going to be a brush truck, or an airfield truck?
Also, what branch of the military is she going to be in?
PM me and I will send you my phone number.
Take care.
