I've mentioned this milions of time but Iam working on a few guntrucks and was wondering about some accessories. First for an AK-47, can I use a German MP44 ammo holster for extra AK-47 ammo??

On the Academy M113 Vietnam version it comes with 3 different turrets to choose from using. The one that has teh 2 machine gune sticking out of it are they 30cal. or 50cal.? Second does anyone have any pics. of how the ammo is fed into the turret or any interior
detail of one??

thats it for now
thanks,
Mike

MP44 pouches won't look right the mags are narrower. Try a square type bag that would hold 4 mags. You might also think a US map chase if your going to use the AKs on a US vehicle. The VC and regulars used chest pouches or bags.

These are for the SKS but AKs are similar

Lucky Bullet I checked the sites and I found some good pics. But do you know about that PE set you were talking about?
