Removed what I thought was a hasty patch panel over the rear deck of my M170. Found some rust, but most noticeable were the six bullet holes. A .50 cal and five 7.62mm. Even more interesting, they ... |

Found another M170 near home that is in pretty bad shape, but it has lots of good parts I can use. Unfortunately it doesn't have any of the rare parts. The top bows are home-made.

I've had m170 parts keyword tagged on eBay for a bit now, and it finally paid off. I found the reel light from a random seller for $150 plus shipping. Also a take-out. Pictures looked good. I beli ... |

A small update...
My dad removed the steel "patch" from the rear deck and discovered something interesting. Six bullet holes. What's weird is that all rounds penetrated from the bottom up. So at ... |
