Weapons and Wheels, a Natural Pairing
Since the wheel was invented, weapons have been mounted to or transported by wheeled vehicles. In this section you will see examples of how vehicles have weapons mounted to them, carried in them, or hidden within them. Some photos will show containers and devices for carrying or concealing various weapons that were engineered or modified by SCLOPETUM associates, other photos may show weapon & wheels combinations developed by/for the military, law enforcement, or legal civilian use.
