I'm cooped up in Ho Chi Minh City with a sprained ankle so I figured why not share my recent purchase.
Some of the iconic souvenirs you can buy from Vietnam are statues made of wood, car/bike parts, or marble.
Ran into a store in Hoi An that sold M-16, m-4, and I think its an MP-5 model. I always wanted some kind of old school rifle as decor but its costly and a real rifle would be against MA storage laws.
The m-16 I think is an A1 as there is a slickside and no ejection port cover. I am probably wrong. The downside is that the barrel looks slightly off center and crooked. I bought it anyway for the historic value of it (being in Vietnam)
It costed me 1,500,000 VND and then paid for shipping. All said and done it came out to about $150 USD after shipping.
Let me know what you guys think. I told the fiance its going on the livingroom wall but she insists it sits above the reloading bench. We will see about that.
I'd consider paying for a green membership again for if people wanted in on a group buy or let me know if you want me to help you broker a purchase from these people.
