The tank at Puckapunyal has something in the turret, but it's not clear how much complete MG remains. It does show, however, that the flash eliminator used on the Tank .5's are different items to the Naval .5. The Tank version uses a key in the wide end of the cone (probably due to clearance issues around the mantlet cowl), while the Naval version uses a C spanner on the small end of the cone.

While it would seem sensible to use common components across different versions of the .5, there are plainly going to be major differences.
