Would this be the correct Live Resin set to buy to replace the .50 cal/ammo box on the Kinetic Maxxpro? I love their stuff but never seem to know what would be appropriate

The kit is nice but the ,50 cal and ammo box could use an upgrade. I know the gunner shield isn't right, so I'd use that elsewhere. LR doesn't seem to have a matching shield. Thanks.

You are correct on both accounts. It is the correct gun and mount, but too early of a shield.

Thanks. I'll use the shield on a Humvee.

The gun and the ammo can are what isn't all that good. The rest is actually OK.

thanks Jason, I planned to replace the M2 with m240b and keep the rest of parts of the turret from the kit, hopefully it will work out.

I'll let you know how I fair with the .50 cal. Kit is pretty nice- the two weakest points are the gun and the seats, in my opinion

The Mk19 in the kit seems OK
