M16A1 Vietnam Peoples Army service rifle 2020

[Turner Ashby]

I have just returned from a combat shooting skills exchange with the Vietnam Peoples Army. The VPA are currently using an array of M16A1 that I believe were manufactured between 1968 and 1971, judging by the serial numbers:

1613546
1819075
3087575
1120983
1648407
2131080
1555699
1348398

Can anyone plase point me in the right direction to track down the history of these rifles. If indeed this is possible at all.

Thanks
