just curious if anyone out there has seen a s.a.g. turret on a M-1078? I'm building the trumpeter kit with the LSAC cab and regardless I'm putting Live-Resin's turret on there (cause it looks awesome!) but it peaked my curiosity...

Calvin, I have never seen a photo of a SAG turret on an M1078. The only turret I've ever seen on one is a modified GPK like the kit comes with. I've only seen the SAG and SAG II on SOF vehicles like the GMV and M-ATV. Robert Skipper (18bravo) might be able to help with that. He has an extensive library of photos that may have something for you.

Regars,

Eric

thanks...I was mainly just curious as I was pretty sure from the get go this would be a "what if" but it's always good to know...actually the further I'm getting with the build the more I've been thinking post-apocalyptic kinda so yea...we'll see where this goes haha

Chris, I like that idea. Just because it hasn't been done doesn't mean it will never be done. I never thought I'd see a SAG II on an M-ATV but I did. It's all about being happy with your work.

Regards,

Eric

Thanks Eric. Yea I am just trying to enjoy this one. I had most of the live-resin goodies in my stash for a while and I'm tired of getting bogged down on builds because of accuracy nit picking and what not (and TRACKS!!! god I'm sick of individual links!) so this one was/is meant to be fun. actually since i started looking at it that way I've actually flown through the build so far...I'll be sure to post some pics hopefully sometime during the week...
