Good idea that. I'm a little dubious that the pilot might actually know enough of the mechanics to be of much help though - my understanding is that it's not a topic covered during pilot training....
With regard to stripping the weapon from the tank (or other AFV) turret, I'd be inclined to leave it in if possible and take advantage of the turret armour. Slap it on a concrete box, add a bit of power (or at worst hand crank) and you've got yourself a VERY scary looking pillbox.
