    Iboos, Don't fret using a Model 10 Riot for Vietnam portrayal. I have a good friend who was a 2 tour LRP who carried a Remington Model 10 when the got too frustrated with his early M-16 breaking down. His Arms Room had a dozen M-10 Riots and he took one as his own. Shotgun on point was normal for his unit. The M-10 may have been officially retired, but many lingered on...
    TFIW!

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Don't forget the Winchester M1200 trench gun was also used in Vietnam. Here is my retro M1200 that I built two months ago. It was your average 28" 12 guage hunting shotgun but now it wears a USGI stock and forearm. The receiver, magazine tube and bayonet attachment is coated with Brownell's Aluma-Hyde II flat black and the barrel was cut down to 20" and then I parkerized it and other parts.

    Thanks! I am not sure where the ammo belt came from because I have had it for a long time.

    Where did you find the stock and bayonet attachment? I've been poking around for something like that and have come up short.

    I found the stock and forearm on gunbroker. The bayonet attachment was purchased through Numrich's gunparts.

    Heres some pics of my M77E

    I bought it for my then collecting of Vietnam era firearms.
    Now that I'm restoring my grandfathers 1943 GPW I am selling off my collection of gear & firearms to re-equipe to Canadianicon WWII.

    I have this one for sale, as well as a clone of a XM177E2 , but not haveing much luck selling up here.
    Too bad the US laws are as such that I can't ship there











    Recoil pad is hard & a bit worn


    screw has screw driver marks
