Mauser Rifles, but Mosin-Nagant Rifles?!?
The Mauser K98k would an almost unheard weapon in Indochina at the time and it would be more reasonable to have a Mosin-Nagant Rifle instead, as it was being sent there by the truck-loads, so Mosin-Nagant Rifles in game would be more real.
- There were 'SOME' Mausers but yes, there are many other rifles which would be more likely to be encountered. The Japanese Arisaka Type 99 or 38 is one, there were thousands left over from the various Japanese occupations. But of course, the Sino-Soviet aid pouring into Vietnam all promoted the use of Sino or Soviet weapons. Mausers are not impossible, but pretty unlikely if you want a broad sampling of something that would be encountered. I've seen Mausers in photos of weapons caches discovered by American GIs in theater, but I agree, I would have gone with a Mosin instead.MoviePropMaster2008 03:02, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
