Gordon Rottman authored several books about weapons in Vietnam. They are in the Osprey series of booklets on weapons.  I don't know if modified or cut down weapons during the Vietnam war has been a specific focus, but I know that it certainly happened. Best of luck with your project.

Hello everyone! (Hopefully I chose the right thread...) I am currently writing a university thesis about american and allied firearms modifications during Vietnam War (e.g. jungle style magazines, sawn-off RPDs, scopes etc.) and am looking for books and/or publications about said subject. So far I know there's some information about it in vietnam firearms books and diaries from the era (e.g. Nick Brokhausen's books) but I was wondering if anyone made any publication specifically about this subject. Thanks in advance for all the answers!

Do you know if I need a specific model? Are they mostly interchangeable? Can you show me a few search terms to use, or any current ebay listings that may work? Thank you so much for your time.

I saw this recipe sheet at a flea market the weekend before last. I decided not to buy it but took a couple of photos. My doctor doesn’t want me eating potatoes anymore so I didn’t want the temptation.  Bon appetite!  mikie
