Put up to it or not, guys got Stainless ones all right.

And they should not need to fight with the army they have if it is defficient. We should have the second source Hummer plant working 3 shifts for UpArmored vehicles and expand production to new facilities if needed. This lack of armor issues on Hummers has been going on for well over a YEAR. There is no excuse for it.

I read somewhere that the Army won't certify the extra weight on the stock Humvees. Let's see, somewhat overloaded but tougher Hummers thru normal channels or grossly overweight stock hummers with far heavier steel plate becuase it was necessary to cirumvent the rules... Asswipes...
