UPDATE! UPDATE! Created the command HMMWV w/ M60 (again, with awesome input by Fierce Krypton)
Working on the rest, my main camera died so I had to use the cell phone.. So with MonkeyDepot having a ridiculous sale on HMMWV's I had to pick up a bunch. My only issue is that you either get the soft-top version w/ No gun or the hard-top with the TOW Launcher on top. http://www.monkeydepot.com/v/vspfile.../USX0138-2.jpg Having a bunch of these, I want to create a fireteam instead of a bunch of TOW's running around! So I'd need 1x TOW, 1x M19 Grenader launcher, 1x .50 Cal, and 1x Command w/ M60. Here is my first attempt at making some sort of mount for the .50 cal. Thanks!

Are you using the actual tow stand from the sets?

It's a mix of stuff. I had to chop the base off the TOW launcher from the HMMWV, then I used bits and pieces of the tripod that came with the .50 cal from Bravo Team. The secret ingredient is the tube holding the gun, it's small pvc painted tan
+ super glue and viola! This was the test one to see if it would hold, and if the gun was moveable, and figures could use it realistically. It does, moves great and they can. I need to clean it up a bit, but it works in a pinch. I was AIMING for this: But with what I had laying around its similar.

Oh and since I used PVC, the gun isnt glued or snapped in so it moves freely and I can swap it for a Mk19 on the fly (or M60).
