Buying Bender
Hey Guys-
Today was a bender of sorts I went to a fellow MV clubmate's house and we went through some of his stuff. I was able to pick out some cool things for my A2.
Eventually my A2 will be re-stenciled, bumper and bumperettes, for a mid-eighties period and Army Battalion. It's going to be a recon Mutt with the M-4 Pedestal (for the M60), equipped with Chem Detection Equipment, and eventually have a vehicular PRC-77 mounted. Anyway here are some pics of today's buying spree
