I have completed 17 different Gun Trucks. I dedicate most of my time to the Vietnam era. Mainly the Gun Trucks of Vietnam because there is very little known about them outside those that served on them or as in my case protected by them.

2 minguns and four 60's? Holy crap. I bet nobody attached that bad boy twice. Some serious lead throwin' potential there... Oh, excellent model, too...

The final version of the Maverick around the middle of 1972 , had four Mini Guns and four 60's. She was one of the most heavly armed trucks during the war.

Just love these Gun Trucks and you model them really well. In fact with the right background they would look real
