See the picture.
Are the 3 "supports" on the back of the turret
for a platform for a gunner working the 50 cal?
If yes, where can I get the platform and the
1/16 gunner figure?
Thx.

It’s for stowing a .50cal more than shooting from.
In Fury they stood on the rear deck and fired the .50.

The two little L shaped arms are actually supposed to have little clamps on them that hold the MG in a stowed position. There is no platform other than the rear engine deck as others have stated.
