Now a couple questions
Someone want to tell me what is different about this gun barrel?

And can someone tell me what this is? It was mounted on the aft right side.

That plate the box is mounted on is an upgrade (or MWO) based on lessons learned the hard way. The phone boxes started mounted on the fender. When the fender was damaged by hitting something, it would also mess up the phone box and cabling. By relocating the box into a bracket that is spaced above the fender, it reduced the damage to the box and it's cable when the fender hit something.
As for the barrel being welded into the travel lock. Remember Jeff posted some photos of a M-60A1 in Barstow CA that had it's barrel welded into the travel lock. When I first saw the top half out there on the tube, I was thinking could that be part of the bracket that was used by the SimFire system. Also fooled me for a second.
Spot Report!

- bsmartI'll try to run up there with a ladder soon and check. I won't promise anything because the barrel is elevated and the ground slopes slightly down in front of it. I ain't gonna shimmy up the barrel to check
