Gun Mount Added

Post by Tim Powell »

Hello Crew.
Been a while. Too long in fact. Finally have the M16 mounted.
Couldn't find the butt mount so we sort of made one in the shop.
Ain't original but looks ok, we think. Also makes a nice place for a couple of grenades!

It is sad we have to chain & lock everything now.
I caught H-E-Double Toothpicks for not having the chain painted!!
We had a pretty rough crowd up there! :twisted:

I'm glad to see a nice M16 in the cab , great job.
My wife has to watch our truck like a hawk at shows when I'm not around or talking to people.

He ain't never bit nobody yet. But then I ain't asked him too.
