Looks good Paul.

Below is two links, the first is the mini I traded 10 AKs for. Just before I left RVN I fitted it to my squads track. The second link is my units homepage with the bad boy working.

Very nice. Any more pictures, perhaps from different views?
Thanks,

Paul. I didnt notice your truck at W&P.
Having said that I didn't really move away from Medway Field the whole time, the ground conditions were unbelievable !!

Pics look good though!

To answer in order;

Nice pictures, I wish our minigun did that!!!

There are more pictures on the site, if you look at this page. http://www.modernforces.com/2012_truck_minigun.htm
I have also just added more detail in terms of quick release pins, more cabling and a flip up "kill switch". Will post pictures of this at teh end of teh month as we have another show

And yes the conditions were bad...we were in the Living History field and it wasn't too bad. Thought the 7.5 tonner we hired to get all teh gear there did get stuck ;)
