Hey!, that picture looks familiar! ;o) Yessir, the HL or Taigen cupola should have a couple of indents where the corresponding mini posts on the back of the MG mount go. Use a good epoxy to mount the piece since the MG swivels and is usually made of metal ( weighty )
regards and have fun!

P.S. Unless you have the Schumo MG mount, you will need to make your own Gurt sack holder. They are simple to do out of thin brass. I made mine using left over PE brass. The little red bar in the photo is 3M clear doublestick tape to help hold the gurt sack piece in place.

Dawned on Me i haven’t any epoxy,wondering if Gorilla Glue would work as well? It’s a super strong ACC.
