    Viet Cong AK-47 vest with some magazines

    This was brought back from Viet Nam around 1967 and I got it from the GI. There is also a hole in this vest plus a large dark spot that shows from the back.

    The interesting item is one of the AK-47 magazines (appears Chinese ?) has had a small caliber bullet (5,56mm ) enter the magazine floor plate and exit through the side - which jammed the follower (it is still this way) Attachment 56807Attachment 56808Attachment 56809
