I have plans to build a semi-custom "box" guntruck, but I face a new problem. Where can I get proper aftermarket machine guns and radios to equip the bed? Please tell me where I can get them.

Academy has a .50 cal and .30 cal MG set that is great. It would have the normal MGs you need. It has the best MGs in plastic too.
Review at PMMS

For M134 Miniguns, Legends makes a resin set. Also, there are some in the Academy UH-1Cs that you could convert to a vehicle mount.

For the radios, many kits come with O.K. Vietnam era radios. The best are probably in the newer Academy M151 kits. Verlinden also make s a set of Vietnam radios.

Also, Legend and Hobby Fan both do guntruck conversions for the AFV Club M35A2 kit. They are a little pricey, but would have all you need.
