Eamonn,
Which T-55 kit are you referring to? the T-55 should have a Dushka MG mounted on the rhs cupola or hatch. Earlier models didn't have MGs, but they were added later. These might even have one mounted by the Commander's hatch on a post type deal. The iraqis modified their tanks with alot of non standard stuff and even used some .50 cal MGs on some of thier tanks.

HTH
Chris
