As of today, the Dragon jeep with .50 Cal MG I pre-ordered from Monkey Depot just before the pre-order window closed was shipped by priority mail, meaning I hope I'll get it faster than the other stuff I get from Monkey Depot.

Also just today, I received some other stuff from Monkey Depot including the M240 GPMG that will serve as the main armament on the Tonka off-roader I got off e-bay a couple of months ago.  Now to figure out were and how to mount it on the vehicle.

Interesting projects in the works at K-Troop! They're going to have quite a motor pool here in a short while!
Will we get to see Professor Laura and the crew working on the modifications?

I have to get some stuff from a hobby store to make the weapon mount for the Tonka and the stores don't reopen until Feb 8. I so hate this pandemic...

I'm not sure how you will mount it, but I'm thinking on the hood in front of the passenger seat.

Unless you plan to put a metal sheet with slits over the front window, considering it's post-apocalyptic...

Maybe then on a bracket off the side of the passenger side fender, where the passenger could reach out
the window and fire it?

Otherwise, you could cut a space for a figure to stand in the back, mounting it on the roof?

Hi Daryl,

Actually, all of those ideas are under consideration. I'm probably also going to order a soft-skin mount from Armorpax in the UK.

PN AP184-UKM

If I knew the size of AP188-UKM, I might actually order that too.

Any chance for some "down time" during the winter of 22/23 during which you might be able to start work on the Dragon Jeep project?
