Well, on a Jeep it was. Some pretty hairy ideas were tested as, you know, there was a war going on.

a 37mm on a Jeep???? Now that would be scary! I am restoring an M2A1 half track and a friend of mine attempted, (half jokenly) to mount his repo 37mm on mine to see if we could simulate the US Army's "anti-tank" unit in North Africa. The Germans must have felt very safe in their tanks. Even in a 10 1/2 ton M2, that reproduction gun was a handful to simulate a fireing sequence so I guess an M16 isn't totally out of the question, but like others said, the real issue is, WAS IT DONE Fred
