    Vietnam, still using the M16A1

    Hi all,

    I found this interesting picture of Vietnamese reserve use of the M16A1.

    Apparently they are still used and locally refurbished, with new locally made plumb coloured furniture.

    I certainly never saw one in this configuration in the early 90's when I travelled there, plenty still in use in standard A1 configuration back then, but none obviously refurbished.

    Interesting, I would love to see more detailed pics.
