We received this tip from Todd (Thanks Man!) and I really have no additional words for it. This was at the 2013 SHOT Show in Las Vegas that just closed today. It is a VW Type 2 Van with a couple of really neat accessories. Make the jump to see the rest of the photos…
Magpul Industries was founded in 1999 by a former U.S. Marine Corps Sergeant, with the intent of developing a simple device to aid in the manipulation of rifle magazines while reloading under stress. The company’s name comes from this original product called the Magpul®. This company is based in Boulder Colorado. The company primarily manufactures Rifle Sights, Buttstocks, Rifle Grips, Ammunition Magazines, and other accessories for Military Style Handguns, Rifles, and Shot Guns.
This Show Van has a lot of little things that are quite questionable, like the Persian Style Rugs that carry the “Made in Afghanistan” label.
Or the Medical Marijuana Kit…
There is no mention as to what type of firearm this van is carrying, so any guesses then? So what do you think about this particular VW Type 2?

Post traumatic stress reliever.
Hate the stance & the chrome bumpers/wheels.
What's the badge on the nose where the VW logo belongs?
That is the Magpul Logo…
That's a 23 window bus. I would complain about ruining such a rare piece but not at a gun show.
Looks like an M134 with a modified barrel length and an infrared spotlight.
And an EOtech on top.
Yep, 2,000-6,000 rpm of 7.62. I just realized the gun can turn more rpm than the van.
Concur. Rotary "gatling" gun, also known as a "minigun". Hope they have a bigger box for the range, it'll eat the contents of that little one in less than a second at full spool!
Appalling, but better than a Hummer.
Love the first aid kit!!
Fillmore has had enough of your sh*t.
Hmphf…….seems like a lot of firepower for a Phish show.
Gotta guard your seat, and your brownies
The rugs are Afghani War Rugs, and are common at rug shops throughout the middle east. I have had one since 2004 when my ship pulled into Bahrain, and I love how ridiculous it is.
That rug does not say "made in Afghanistan." It clearly says MADEIN AE6HANISIAN.
just hope no one is shooting back, cuz 21 of 21 windows are not bulletproof
I remember reading about the Mini-gun equipped Suburbans in Car and Driver a few years ago. The Suburbans were mostly sold to various 3rd world potentates for their security details. They made a point not to armor the Suburbans. The logic was the security detail was more inclined to stand and fight in an unarmored vehicle than run away in a armored vehicle.
Apparently Magpul is branching out into motorcycles: http://thekneeslider.com/magpul-ronin-1125r-comin…
I wouldn't be surprised if the van itself was armored and with reinforced bulletproof glass. Those are just about the only features missing anyway.
