normal trigger (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7a/M240G-0167-2004-01.jpg)

vehicle trigger (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/m-240-dvic548.jpg)

My question is, can a vehicle mounted weapon be taken off and have a normal "trigger" (and indeed a stock, again if that is the right word) and vice versa?

A medium machine gun, like the M240B, has multiple configurations. However, the M2HB only is available in the butterfly trigger option.
