Hey all. Whats the map symbol for MPs? (Considered heavy mounted infantry.) Looking to get a tatoo that incorperates that and the symbol for machine gun. (A filled in dot, with a line with a half arrowhead  extending from that.) Thanks guys!

MP in a box (not  too exciting, is it?)

Works for me. lol.

Hmm....trying to figure out a nice way to do a black and white relatively small tattoo with the MP in a box,  the machine gun symbol, and maybe some other piece to it.

Hmmmmm....

How about those crossed pistols?

Thought about it, but don't know how to do em in black and white without making them so they might be mistaken for crossed rifles or sabers. Just havent found any good two-tone b&w pictures of the Lee Harpis Ferry Pistols.

Good god man, what are they teaching at MP school these days? MP's are NOT heavy mounted anything! They are grunts with a badge, or if you will extra light infantry minus all the supporting firepower. The map symbol is a lounge chair with a cooler used as a foot rest, and a poncho hooch for cover.

If you want a good B&W template for a tatoo, try making a zerox of the branch insignia. No one is going to mistake the curved handle of those pistols if it's done right. BTW, if you do get MP ink, remember that it may keep you from doing any plain clothes work as a civilian cop.
