I'm looking for some Modern guns like the M4 or the M203 things like that, unless someone has some that I could trade with or just buy off of them. they need to be the Modern OIF ones though. And what kind of guns would the tankers have with them anyway for back ups, and Please I'm not talking about their Handguns? Thanks in Advancs.

Thanks, I'll have to think about this one, I like the one with the Silincer, but I don't think a tanker would use that one?

Cam:

Most tankers in the 3rd ID (original part of the invasion) used M4s and kept them next to them. Some used AKs that they picked up along the way, but would still have the M4 due to the ammunition availability.

DML sells an M16 family kit that is still available in most hobby shops. There is an early version of an M4 there and should be fine. That is what I used here:

Also, note that 3rd ID crews had AT-4s as well. They kept them near the TC hatch as well.

I don't know if tankers in OIF2 still practice this.
