The Mountain Stove was part of the toboggan check list as I remember. There was a lantern, a two-burner stove, AND a mountain stove for the tent groups. I had a really good experience with those little blast-furnaces. The Coleman PEAK stove is a very close equivalent.

Default GPMG Toboggan Mounting

I was at the CWM on Remembrance Day and photographed this GPMG mounting for the forum.

Ed it is a great picture but in a pdf, can we change that format and rotate it and watermark it for you?

Default GPMG Toboggan Mounting

I believe I have worked out the problem, here is the photo I took in the CWM. It is a pretty slick looking set-up.

They look even better on a toboggan. The downside is that the toboggan now becomes part of your defensive position. While the GPMG does not have a lot of kick, it still doesn't seem like the most stable mount.

Best not to have your defensive position on a hill I guess.
