M6 37mm 1/4 ton TRUCK MOUNTED ANTITANK GUN - USEFUL INFORMATION FOR JEEP MOUNTS
·
FOR JEEPS, ORDER THE REGULAR TOWED M3 GUN AND CARRIAGE KIT AND THE
M6 PEDESTAL
·
MAC M6 PEDESTAL
· BASEPLATE SHOWN IN THE DRAWINGS IS NOT INCLUDED, IT'S JUST A RECTANGULAR PLATE CUT AND DRILLED TO FIT YOUR VEHICLE. THERE WERE SEVERAL SIZES USED, SO MY KIT SHOWS YOU HOW TO DETERMINE HOW TO FABRICATE THIS SIMPLE PIECE.
· MAC M6 SHIELD (SLOPED) IS FOR WC TRUCKS AND HALF TRACKS
· JEEPS USE STANDARD FLAT SHIELD (INCLUDED IN THE MAC TOWED GUN KIT)
YOU WILL NEED:
M3 TOWED GUN KIT (YOU WILL USE MOST OF IT, BUT SOME PIECES WILL BE UNUSED)*see below
MAC M6 MOUNT
* I know it sounds crazy, but you need the towed kit, too, the M6 mount kit. But for your Jeep vehicle, you would not assemble the towed gun carriage parts or shield assy. I don't have a way to easily break the towed kit down since they are cut by a contractor in a "nest" of parts. The good news is you really wouldn't be losing much money or parts because the kit doesn't come with the axle assy, trail legs, etc. and so you just simply would not use a few parts that come with it for the carriage. The gun then would sit on the M6 mount, and you'd install the M3 flat shield.
Here are benefits:
Also, go ahead and build your carriage, so now you have TWO usable platforms and can interchange your gun between them in about 15 minutes!
