Title: Top Shot
Post by: Dinadin on April 23, 2012, 11:18:37 PM

On tonight's episode of Top Shot on the History Channel they will be live firing a 1919A4 from the back of a moving M3A1 halftrack.  I figured someof you may want to see that.

Saw the preview a couple of days ago. Wonder if it belongs to anyone we know? The TS guys seemed pretty excited about it so maybe we have a new market for halftracks, lol.

It belongs to Bill K.  I don't think he's on any forums.  He reenacts with the 2nd ID out here in California.

that used to be my halftrack. i found it in willows ca on a farm. it was missing all the rear armor but still had the original rear bed. i sold it to smurf (his screen name here and the G). he then sold it on ebay to bill in southern ca.
