spring is (trying to pop) up here.
I have been waiting for an m23 mount to arrive to mount the 50 on the 1/4 ton..
Just till I get the halftrack completed then the 60 go's back on top of jeep and 50 to the track..
but I thought I would show it off..
This Saturday is an event to raise moneys for the WWII fredom flight to DC memorial.for WWII VETS. I was asked to park it for display their... need to take off winter tires and toss on the NDCC tomorrow and give it a good wash...

I love the scale and significance of that wire cutter! If Conan the Barbarian sees that he's going to accuse you of raiding his armory... and you best be hoping he's on foot.

I do have to say, that is one hell of a tow bar! (remembering Ralph again.) Poof, that was an inside joke that went on forever with Uglyranger on here.

any long pintle cradle will work with the M4 pedestal.

I love it....what type of mount is that and is the pintle long or short? do you think this swing arm would work?

This is a USMC field mod mount for their FAV's. It's actually the top portion of the M4 pedestal mount that has been cut
off and welded to the dash. The cradle mount in the pic is a M142 long pintle for the M60. A similar pedestal socket

If you are trying to restore a gun jeep similar to the ones used by Rangers during the Grenada invasion, I personally don't think
the mount with the swing arm in your link will be accurate. You could probably use a M48 dash mount instead but you need to modify
it for your application.
