Default M151a2 mg

In my experience with '74 Jeeps, there was not standard machine gun mount - at least for Canadian vehicles. The M38A1 '67 and '70 Jeeps did have a 7.62 GPMG on the right side wall for the crew commander/passenger. But the in-service roll cage completely interfered with that site for the base.

That said, there was an experiment to try a similar mount on the 74, as I think Rob Love originally posted. Trials do not equal acceptance.

This is the caption I saved for the attached photo (not my original), 'M151A2 CDN 74-09464 imagined GPMG mount from MLU 1'
