I don't believe it :twisted:


Some sort of conspiracy going on here, what are my options~?

1. Find the truck and burn it
2. Steal the truck and have it smelted down
3. Buy it and drive it of a cliff
4. Have the owner bumped off
5. Paint it red
6. Resign my membership and expect my follow members to come out on strike in support of my cause.

Does anyone have any close up pictures of the extra ammo box tray and how it is attached to the ring mount? I have some of the components but must be missing a part or two because I cannot figure out how it is attached. All of the TM's I have are not helpful. Thanks in advance

Well if Bill had offered to pay me I'd have to have said that the prestige place of "Picture of the Week" was reward enough.

I couldn't take his money as well.

Yes, all I need are pictures of the extra tray assembly. I have the back part, and the tray, but nothing else. I suspect there has to be a bracket or two required.

Thank you.

Actually folks...I have pictures lined up for when they will post. So if you sent me a good picture (with a good background) it will eventually get on site. The list is about 7 weeks back.

Pictures may immediately go to the front of the list if it pertains to a timely event or anniversary of a Battle (or cash 8)).

Please keep the pictures coming...they will eventually make the front page (even when I eventually get yours Jack).

Roger that Bill.

Waiting until I get a good picture.....don't want to let the side down.

I wanted to get a good one from the Gathering of Eagles event but it poured with rain :cry: also wanted to get one from the Veterans Day at Weymouth but a flippin old Sherman tank kept getting in the way :twisted: will see if I can get the perfect shot this weekend as we will be at the Tank Fest.

Failing that.........just keep taking Karoshi cash :shock:
