I am with you Ryan...when one of my MVs rolls I have all weapons issued to
it on board......never had a problem, nothing but compliments.
We will be firing live 37mm AT Gun this weekend at knob creek.
I will be renting the weapon for a fee......includes a video of the event!
God Bless America......
