    1952 M38 Donation Project

    Greetings all! It's been a while since I've been on the forums, largely due to the fact that I have sold the M1008. It went to a good home and a good friend. Another buddy of mine, however, recently received the donation of a 1952 M38. You read that right. Said buddy was in the Marine...
