I agree, 'bullet splash' is dealt with by thin, overlapping strips at the hatches and joints. I'm in on that box of operator's hand books (when you eventually find it) but have found that even those don't explain all the little details. The Fox has a 7/8" wrench chained to the upper right gun mantlet. No mention what it's for until I discovered it was there to tighten the gun 'travel lock'. Its secondary purpose is to shake loose from its clip and bounce off the back of the driver's head after hitting a bump.
