Turret hatch questions

Post by 04mustang » Mon Dec 04, 2017 4:28 am

I am aware there are quite a few hatch designs on the turrets through the years of hmmwv production. I have a question though about the 2 earlier styles that use the non-round weapons station and the one that is round.
It appears that on the non-round design that the hatch opens one way and on the newer round type that the hatch opens the opposite way. However they look to be the same components just with the hinges flipped.
My question is that I have round style weapons station and do not currently have a hatch. I have planned to piece one together using ebay kascar and mac motors for the parts sources but the hatch I locate on kascar looks to be for the non-round weapons station. Will this work for me or will I need to keep looking for the correct one?
The weapons station I have is part number RCSK19021, while the early non-round type is part number 12340346

Thank you,
Corey

I have a used hatch lid available if you are interested.

Hatch is the same on both...the hinges on the round tray are aluminum : 12469293.
Hinges on the non-round tray are stamped steel 12446767.
Round tray hatch also needs the angled aluminum hatch rest : 12469294 with one rubber bumper.
Hatch is either : 12340347...M102x series, or early M1151.
Hatch 12340340 is suppl. armor [ steel over aluminum ] M104x series.
Both hatches will work.
