Hey I am planning to get the Panda hobby M-ATV when it comes out but I want to put a weapons station on it......Would the AFV Club m151 stryker station or do I have to get the CROWS from blastmodels.........and If I use the AFV Club RWS can I leave the GPK on or should I leave it off........if possible any service members I would greatly value your input

Hi Frank
I guess you can go with Blast's CROWS II :
You can download a large picture of a CROWS II-fitted M-ATV in Afghanistan on Defenseimagery.mil :
here
I've read that at least 1,400 M-ATVs will receive it.

Hello,
are there some pictures that shows the mounting of the RWS on the roof and from the roof without a turret?

Holy cow...Full Options..your not kidding. SPARK, CROWS, DVE, RPG Net, Counter IED, Boomerang, looks like a satcom blade antennae toward the back...heck, there's probably a BFT antennae mounted back there somewhere.

Hi Brent
I'm not sure about the mine roller being the SPARK one. Or maybe it's an improved version, but there are many detail differences. Impressive add-on list anyway !

Agreed, I think this might be the SPARK II roller.
