Last night I ran across some magazines titled "Vietnam". I will add specific info on the magazine & articles later. The issue I borrowed had 2 items of interest.
#1 - There was a photo of a U.S. soldier with a short barrel m16 with a collapsable stock. The article was a about a specific engagement.
#2 - A photo of a U.S. soldier shooting a suppressed 10/22. I did look up that the 10/22 was introduced in 1964. The article was about the use of suppressed weapons.
Both pics caught me off guard as I figured neither was used in Vietnam. The Collapsable stock I thought was a later development. Both pics looked authentic.
Any comments are welcome.
