Pics of 'Vietnam bring back' Type 38.

I found that countless times, wishing the original blue was still in place. A good bath of boiling water will take the rest of the sticky mess off and then a bit of oil...

Oh it's definitely still there. I just might go ahead and give it a light going over.

Just wondering where the vietnam story came into play.
Was this a Vet bring back?

The guy I bought it from claimed it was a 'bring back' from Vietnam. No papers at all. I bought the rifle, not the story, as its often been said. I was just happy to get a mummed Type 38 for $150!
