Seems quite plausible, if the Soviets were handing out Sturmgewehrs, they almost certainly had a few Maschinenpistoles as well.

That was extremely possible, the Soviets sent a ton of captured former Third Reich weapons down there but mostly K98k rifles

Something of an sks guy here, and just an interesting side note, the north Vietnamese manufactured their own variant of the rifle as well. It’s one of the rarest variants in the western civilian market, but they did. And I believe it had a Russian style blade bayonet rather than the Chinese type 56 spike bayonet. So some of those photographs with bladed sks’s could be North Vietnamese rifles rather than Soviet. For that matter, also very rare to find in the west today are East German and North Korean sks variants, both of which were also used in Vietnam. In fact most if not all examples of those 3 variants we have here in the states are Vietnam bring backs.

11:27 I learned what those were from watching "Platoon"! Lol I've seen it many times, but just this year a few months back I was watching it again (I've been collecting firearms and learning about them in the civilian world since the last time I saw it many years ago, so this time I was paying attention) and I noticed that Elias and Barnes carried the XM's, but when I first noticed it (they each had em slung over the back) my first thought was "they had M4's back then??" So I know the M4 is practically an M16 with some smaller dimensions and changeable stick length; my first couple years in the army I used the M16, and eventually we had the M4, but anyway I googled it and the release dates for the M4 didn't match so then I started googling some different questions and that's when I discovered this neat (and for it's time) very unique weapon. Another thing I noticed was the other lower enlisted didn't have the XM, so I'm assuming that they were limited to leadership, which I can see bc that's how it was when I was lower enlisted with the optics; ACOGs for NCOs, 68s for lower enlisted (idk why, that's just how it was).

Where’d they get all the ammo for those captured 3rd Reich weapons anyway? 20 plus years later I’d imagine most of the German made ammo was gone by then. Did they modify them to take Russian or common rounds?
