HMMWV trucks setup like this and driving the roads will eventually cause the govt to revoke all our trucks. I'm old so it wont be tomorrow but stand by.

There is truth to this, I recall driving around in the late 80’s in a WW2 Jeep with a ma deuce on a pedestal mount and sure ‘nuf, multiple karens call the popo on us.

The M134 or whatever that is on the door mount is a bit much though.

He doesn't drive around with the "guns" mounted . He sets them up for shows and parades. They are replica guns.

Really replica guns? Well that ruins it.
Headsets with ear plugs. With one shot
the concussion that close to anyone in
that truck would be saying “huh?” For the
rest of their lives.
It is a cool set up though. Like it!!!

M134 on a swing arm using a 1919 pintle. Not going to happen.
It would be a bit more believable in the turret.
Where's the ammo supply coming from.
At 4-6,000 rounds a minute it needs a rather large ammo stowage device .
Sometimes to much is over the top.
I get it it's his truck .
I'm not against weapons on trucks real or fake but at some point you have to make it believable.
And the M134 just makes it too much.

Is this construction realistic? It seems to me that he has simply tinkered with everything he could get his hands on.
The Gatling on the door makes no sense to me. Too heavy, questionable ammunition supply. Freedom of movement for the shooter behind the door too.
So heavily armed and then no armor?

Is this for show at a games con?

Its a cool truck, not gonna hate on it. Glad to see people enjoying the hobby.

That said, the side view mirror on the non-windowed cupola doesnt make a lot of sense lol.
