Model used for photos of this listing belonged to my collection. Many of the early gun trucks were based on 2.5 ton trucks. Early on the 5 ton truck was found better suited for this role. This model features unique armor plating sheets attached to the sides and rear of the bed. It retains its ring mount .50 caliber machine gun on the passenger side of the roof. Designed for the US Army in 1949 by the REO Motor Car Company, the M35 "Deuce and a Half" first entered service in the early 1950s. This 2 ½ ton vehicle is rated to carry 5,000 lbs cross-country and up to 10,000 lbs on paved roads, but has been known to carry much more, in some cases up to twice what it is rated for. No longer used just by the Army, today M35s serve all branches of the US military as well as in many other nations. Variants include cargo trucks, tank trucks, wrecker and tractor variants as well as van, construction and gun variants.
