Sold a hinge for one to a guy who tested armored hummers,they were offroad and the 52 flew across and smashed into the pillar with the lid open. Replace hinge and speaker cover and it's still running.

7 of them went to one diesel repair shop in 3 orders,he ain't killed one yet. Got 2 from Afghanistan,US Army engineer unit. They managed to punch holes 1" + in the magnesium lid on both of them.Still running.
I am an Army Engineer currently getting ready for another trip to the sandbox. I can honestly say from experience that a 1" hole is pretty surprising- it is usually much worse. Breaking stuff is what we do best.....usually with C4! :D

WYRM73 -- thanks for your service!

Not much experience with 52s, but have some parts/components for a Cf-30. If I can be of any help, don't hesitate to ask.

Be careful over there.
