I am not sure what the problem could be. My M2 works just fine and will
elevate until something else hits like the amo box or the bottom of the gun
hitting the ring. Do you have the long (shaft) pintle?

Subject: [MV] CCKW M2HB Gun Mount...

> Greetings,
> I just recieved a cradle for my M2HB which is to be mounted on my 42
closed cab CCKW. I'm running into a slight problem though. When I install
the gun in the cradle and the cradle on the trolley on the mount I can only
pivot the gun downward. The cradle seems to have a stop built into it which
only allows it to pivot in one direction (barrel down). At rest the gun is
horizontal but it can not be aimed skyward what so ever. Any suggestions
would be very helpful. Thanks.
