    Not sure on the legalities of hunting from a vehicle myself, never actually did it, just thought real hard about doing so as a kid, mainly while watching all the deer and such from the tractor seat. No major hog problems down here, though a neighbor did let a bunch of Piney wood's rooters loose several years ago and they were tearing our crops up and we had to take them out. The little suckers were tough as well, hate to see what a large hog could take.

    I think you're right about it possibly being a display for laughs. The EOTech and Rem(ington?) banners suggest that this is a gun store. The hazard sign so perfectly tucked into the ammo can is another tell. If that's true, it's very clever; this would be a crowd pleaser at any rural gun store in America.

    looks nice. but when you need a machine gun strapped to your lawn tractor to cut the front lawn, I think it's time to look for a new neighborhood lol

    Except for the probability of getting out of hand I sometimes wish for a flame thrower mounted on my brush cutter.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
    When I have to paint I use KBS products

    A real-life version; the John Deere M-Gator A1. This John Deere vehicle is only available for sale to the US military.

    Hmm, four machine guns and no crew protection armor. Now that's how you motivate your men to get into attack mode. Is driving it a volunteer-only assignment?

    German police vehicle. Looks to be around 30 years old.

    Posed photo, looks like 4 mk19 automatic grenade launchers just sitting on the Gator, not mounted, no provision for the ammo belts, which on a 40mm is quite large, no provision for elevation, those suckers have a trajectory like a rainbow.

    Actuall more likely that Gator is an ordnance section transport vehicle (note Aviation designator on fender horn) hauling heavy guns to/from aircraft or crew-served vehicles
