Let me try to translate this...
: I am going to go reenact the vietnam war with a couple of my friends. I have alot of gear, but I need some help with VC/NVA gear/weapons. Could you guys help me find any informational threads on this subject, or anything that has to do with the vietnam war? Does anyone have any Vietnam era guns for sale?

Did you just purposely post that in response to the attempting wording of the first post? Or is that just how you talk when letters are involved?

The most important thing you need for VN war type stuff would be leaches. Lots of them. And bugs. Then you will be authentic.

Finn, go do some real research, and I don't mean asking other people to tell you what to get. That is half the fun of doing any kind of historical impression. Go to a library, or book store. Serously, I go down to barns and noble sometimes and spend hours just looking at pictures and reading little bits in neat info. The internet has a TON of info out there to find. Do some research.

Can we have a Grammar Nazi Corner?
I see more Grammar bashing than Airsoft talk most of the time.
Even if the kids typing like a little pube, is it that hard to ignore it and help him out? |

VIETCONG / NVA VIETNAM GUIDE
WEAPONS
Many of the weapons used by the NVA and VC were copies of these soviet weapons
AK-47
Although the AK-47 (Avtomat Kalashnikov 1947) assault rifle is a soviet weapon, many AKs used by the NVA and Vietcong were Chinese and other copies. The AK-47 is a gas operated, 7.62mm, selective fire (semi and full auto), assault rifle which uses a detachable 30 round magazine. Due to its simple design, it was very reliable and durable and there are even accounts of U.S. soliers ditching their M16s for a AK-47s.
RPD
Somewhat similar in appearence to the later RPK, the soviet RPD (Ruchnoy Pulemet Degtyarova) was the Vietcong and NVAs main light machine gun. It fired 7.62mm bullets from a 100 round belt usually contained in a drum under the weapon. The RPD was a gas operated, full auto only weapon.
Simonov SKS
The SKS (Samozaryadnyj Karabin Simonova) is a 7.62mm, semi-automatic, carbine rifle. Most have a integral folding bayonet under the barrel and use a integral 10 round magazine. The SKS was used extensively by the Vietcong.
PPSh41
The PPSh41 (Pistolet Pulemjot Shpagina 1941) is a fully automatic, select fire, 7.62mm, sub machine gun. Used extensivly by the Russians in World War II, the PPSh41 used 71 round drum magazines, which after a while had feeding problems and were time consuming to reload. 35 round magazines were availible but most VC and NVA soldiers used the 71 round ones.
MAT-49
The MAT-49 (Manufacture Nationale d'Armes de Tulle 1949) was a compact French sub machine gun used against the VC and NVA in the Indo-China war and later found their way into the hands of the vietnamese. The weapon was developed in the 40s but adopted by the French army in 1949. Originally fireing 9mm parabellum rounds, the vietnamese modified it to fire the soviet 7.62mm x 25P ammunition, lengthened the barrel, increased the ROF and replaced the 32 round magazine with a 35 round one. A unique feature of the MAT-49 was the folding mag well, which folded along the barrel for easier carrying. The MAT-49 also had a grip safty similar to the one on the Colt M1911.
RPG-7
The RPG-7 is a soviet muzzle loading, smoothbore, shoulder fired, 40mm recoilless anti-tank laucher. Used by the NVA and VC to take out helicopetrs, armored vehicles and soldiers, the RPG-7 was a succesfull weapon that exploded either on impact or at its maximum range of 920 meters.
Tokarev TT33
The Tokarev is a soviet semi-auto pistol weighing 2.2 pounds that was developed in the 1930s and fired 7.62mm bullets. Used extensivly by the Russians in World War II, the Russians stopped production of the pistol in 1954 but was still built by other communist countries such as the Chinese who built the TT33 copy, Type-54. It had no safety and the magazine held 8 rounds but the pistol was still very popular among VC and NVA officers.
UNIFORMS & GEAR
NVA Uniform
The NVAs cotton khaki uniform sometimes had epaulettes and usually had two pockets. Most NVA uniforms were made locally and not issued so they differ significantly. Red rank patches were often sewn onto the colar.
NVA Canteen
The most popular canteen used by the VC and NVA was a 1 qt. brown colored aluminum canteen held in a canvas harness with a carrying strap.
NVA Pith Helmet
The pith helmet was used by some NVA and VC soldiers. Many soldiers put cloth [url="http://i12.ebayimg.com/03/i/07/d9/27/49_1_b.JPG"]covers[/url] over their helmet. Many NVA did not wear one partly because they were not enough for every soldier.
Vietcong / NVA Grenade Carrier
This NVA or vietcong grenade carrier held two German "potato masher" style stick grenades. It has straps for easy carrying.
Vietcong / NVA Snadals
Many NVA and vietcong soldiers wore sandals which were easy to make and were what they wore as civilians.
AK-47 Chest Pouch
The AK-47 chest pouch usually had three pouches for AK-47 magazines and four small pouches for rice and accessories. Chest pouches were worn by many NVA and vietcong soldiers. They were also very easy to produce.
SKS Chest Pouch
The SKS chest pouch usually had 10 pouches for SKS stripper clips and were able to carry up to 200 rounds of 7.62mm SKS ammunition. Chest pouches were easy to make and worn by many NVA and vietcong.
Drum Magazine pouch
The drum magazine pouches were used to carry drum magazines for the PPSh41 and the RPD. They were also used to carry other things such as personal items.
NVA Boonie Hat
Popular among the NVA soldiers, boonie hats were made by villagers or in the field and often had a communist star on it.
NVA / Vietcong Belt
Worn by many NVA and VC to keep their pants from falling down, almost all had a communist star on the buckle.
NVA Rucksack
Worn by some NVA soldiers to carry their personal items, NVA rucksack were very simple in design so many could be produced by NVA "factories" in the jungle.
NVA / Vietcong RPG Pouch
Used to carry RPG rockets, the RPG pouch also usually had extra pouches for personal items.
Machete
Used by VC and NVA to hack their way through the thick jungles of Vietnam, the machete was also used for fighting.
NVA Belt Pouches
NVA soldiers sometimes carried things in pouches attached to their belt. Although many perfered the pouches with straps.
Rice Bowl
Used by just about every single VC or NVA soldier, the rice bowl was used for eating out of. Note the loop on the bowl, it was put on so it can be hung off a pack or pouch.
Vietcong Black Pajamas
Worn by many VC the "Black Pajama" uniform consisted of the shirt and a scarf. The color combination of the scarf indicated the unit the wearer was attached to. Scarfs were often givin as awards for bravery in battle.
NVA Field Shoes
These NVA field shoes were NVA issue.
Scarf
Scarfs were often givin as award for battlefield accomplishments and came in many different combinations of colors.
NVA Medical Pouch
This NVA medical pouch held bandages and some medicine for wounds.
