    Buying HMMWV from law enforcement agency

    It has to go back to the govt first, then it can go on govdeals, IF they decide to sell it intact.

    Looking for a TM for my Ingersoll-Rand D-60 Air Compressor

    The TM title is "Type 40, Model D60-PA, two-stage air compressor, Ingersoll-Rand Co." added around March 1945 to the List and Index of Department of the Army Publications per Google Books. As such you will probably need to find it among WWII collectors as it will not have been digitized...

    The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

    Which exact version of the ipad? And which version of the OS? That can make all the difference in the world!

    Arrived...........the M1009/BIAB1 from german M1008

    The problem with the old GI ones is that the rubber has shrunk and they will not 'hold' onto the can when pouring. And the 'oriental' replacements have the 'washer' compression disc too thin to hold the rubber compressed, so they come off easily also. Use what you have for actually moving...

    Containerized Kitchen

    CK was the replacement for the MKT series, so not as many have been surplussed (yet). One of them can feed up to 600 troops with a crew of about 6, vs about 10 with two MKT's fully staffed.

    Containerized Kitchen

    The CK TM is on the USB drive that I've distributed to so many of the guys that have bought kitchens (MKT's and TFK-250's). It is TM 10-7360-226-13P if you want to search Liberated Manuals or radionerds for it.

    Civilian armoring the HMMWV

    If not stopping stupid, it would at least slow stupid down to be survivable. And smaller pieces can be glued onto the edges of hard plates (overlap from front to back at least 3-4 inches) to stop spalling from flying up into your chin, or to the sides into your arms, etc.

    Civilian armoring the HMMWV

    And someone here was selling 4 x 8 foot sheets of Kevlar level 3 this past week. If I remember correctly each sheet weighed less than 350 pounds. Cut correctly you should be able to get three sheets to cover the critical parts. Just my 2cents.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    ITAR - International Traffic in Arms Regulations is a United States regulatory regime to restrict and control the export of defense and military related technologies to safeguard U.S. national security and further U.S. foreign policy objectives. The problem arises that many of the people in...

    Finding a Vendor

    Maybe the vendors need a reminder to put a 'this is what we got' message on that forum, so people will look at it.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    They did not want to mess with international shipments because there can be serious problems for businesses if they violate the ITAR regulations. The deuces went out on EUC's (End Use Certificates) and some dealers are not sure exactly what part might be considered 'arms dealing'. Then there...

    Been really wanting an LMTV ... but...

    And you need to come to the GA MV Rally in November, even if you don't have any green (pink) iron by that time. You will get a lot more info on the ins and outs of this hobby face to face.

    A mule is just an off-road golf cart painted OD green. Or maybe just golf carts are the grandchildren of the Mule!

    Remote brake fluid reservoir

    Most of the kits that I've seen have the line up to the remote go in the place of the vent cap and lead up through the floor to an area on the left side of the driver's seat on the back wall, almost level with the top of the cab wall. If you are going deeper than that, you will need a deep...

    Aberdeen 2021 NOT at Aberdeen this year....

    Gone by there a couple of times, picking up stuff from Mechanicsburg. Was not far from there back in the early 70's, sitting on Lamb's Knoll for a week at a time.
