Appearing on the streets only when the player achieves a six-star [[Wanted Level in GTA III Era|wanted level]], the Barracks OL is a military truck based on the [[wp:M939|M939 "5 ton"]] truck. When first introduced in GTA III, it was visually very similar to the [[Flatbed]] truck, differing only in its body colors and its modified bed design with additional fencing. Unlike the Flatbed, the Barracks OL underwent fewer modifications after GTA III, retaining its rugged, military-like design.
Appearing in traffic only when the player achieves a six-star [[Wanted Level in GTA III Era|wanted level]], the Barracks OL is a military truck based on the [[wp:M939|M939 "5 ton"]] truck. When first introduced in GTA III, it was visually very similar to the [[Flatbed]] truck, differing only in its body colors and its modified bed design with additional fencing. Unlike the Flatbed, the Barracks OL underwent fewer modifications after GTA III, retaining its rugged, military-like design.


The Barracks OL comes with three types of bed configurations: uncovered, uncovered with framing, and fully covered; GTA San Andreas' Barracks, however, features only two bed configurations: covered with [[wp:tarpaulin|tarpaulin]], or covered with camouflage netting (revealing boxes on the bed). The GTA San Andreas and GTA Advance renditions feature closed cabs, while all other renditions feature open cabs. Despite the Barracks' huge size, it is only capable of carrying the driver and one passenger.

From GTA Vice City onwards, [[Vigilante]] missions can be activated from the Barracks OL, but it isn't really a good choice for doing them, because the Barracks is very slow and sluggish, and it isn't too durable. In GTA San Andreas, the Barracks even features a siren without strobe lights, which, like other sirens, will force traffic in front of the truck to move out of the way.

* In GTA Vice City Stories, a bulletproof Barracks OL will appear in the mission [[Truck Stop]]. It's difficult to obtain and the truck won't be bulletproof anymore once Phil Cassidy has taken control of the truck, due to the health bar.

* There is a glitch on the Barracks with the camouflage netting in the PS2 version of GTA San Andreas, which is, if you press the select button to change the view, change it to the bumper view and hold the L2 & R2 buttons to look back, the netting will disappear and the only thing you will see is the bed of the truck. And if you press the button again to the full truck view the netting will return.
* There is a visual glitch on the Barracks with the camouflage netting in the PS2 version of GTA San Andreas. If the player selects the bumper view, when looking backwards, the netting is not visible and only the bed is visible.
