I've got a ton of reference pics for those of you building the up-armored 1083 gun trucks. I TCd one of these things for almost a year before they moved us to the M117 ASV. Most importantly, most gun truckers I saw ripped most of the bedsides off to increase visibility and reduce the risk of shooting through your bedsides. I had my soldiers rip the back half of the box off and build a half-box in the front half complete with troop seats that I was pretty proud of. If any one else needs reference photos of the gun truck or the current version of the ASV let me know.

As you were...I'm a newbie and have yet to figure out how to post the pic in the body of the message, but they're in my gallery...You'll find them there.

Okay...submitted more pics of various vehicle configurations throughout my first and second deployments. I have a ton more from the last trip, but I'm trying to recover them from my harddrive so they'll have to come later. As far as interior pics of the up-armored LMTV/FMTV I don't have any, but we have a few in our motorpool and I'll get shots of them. Any other requests?
