[JTDay]

Soooo if anyone in here hasn't looked at ford global fleet sales website, you're missing out. Plenty of rangers out there used at military trucks. Here's a PJ:

On my first Afghanistan tour years back, 2009-2010, I was part of a training group teaching the Afghan Army how to install their HF radio systems on their vehicles. To my surprise thier main fleet of trucks were armored Ford Rangers, painted desert tan and a crew gun swivel mount in the bed of the truck, right on top of the roll bar. Unfortunately for them thier gunners had to stand all the time as they had no sling seat like our vehicles, but easily the most bad ass looking Rangers I've ever seen. I was driving an 08 Ranger 4x4 Sport at that time.

Brother, that rifle is almost bigger than you. A man of your stature would be better off with something like this.

That PRI Mod0 SPR clone ain't nothing.

Circa about ten years ago I developed a liquid cooled hybrid rail gun (no not like the Sci-Fi kind; google "competition rail gun") using a 24" barreled 308 rifle as a test bed. Could work in semi or single shot mode with the turn of a custom gas key. Completely custom muzzle brake. Ended up selling off the IP to a company that shall not be named (NDA). Recoiled like a .22LR, but loud as shit. If you set up a camera 10 feet away to the side of the blast port, then play the footage back in slow motion it looks like tremors going off.

Weighed 28.12 pounds unloaded....

That is awesome looking and im sure those headlights amongst other parts where just added for the wow factor not functionality per se.

I actually planned to add a rotatable swivel mono-pod attachment at some point in the future, though mine would be more for long gun than the machine gun they use.

Dang I can't believe how old this photo is now;

I'm certainly no operator, but wouldn't it be easier to shift your aim than to rotate your body around a mixed mount while laying prone?

I like it how it is, seems very "multi function." No need to "run'n'gun" till the zombie apocalypse. When that goes down your shooter up top can just strap himself down with his belt.

So, any of you feel like sending this over to a Tacoma fanboy forum? Lol!!

You think this would fit our Rangers?

I am trading my 2020 Lariat for one immediately! It's becoming necessary in New Orleans.

Cool setup, is that an AR10?

I am assuming you had intended for me to take offense to this but your use of Google translator has instead made your post extremely comical.

No it is a 556 rifle. It is based off the old mk12 mod0 spr though not all of the parts on mine would allow it to qualify for a true clone.

Being military it’s probably a sealed unit that costs 5K

FIFY: $18,532.67
