Yeah, I've seen it a couple times at WM. Kind of weird, I think. :roll:

Maybe the guy is VC and he captured the M-41. :D Remember the source of manufacture, maybe somebody in the Chinese factory has a sense of humor :shock:

In VN the South VN army did use M-41's as well as ROK (Republic of Korea) Marines. A ROK unit in my area used M-41's and M-24's. Those ROK Marines were mean MF's. Even the VN stayed clear of them whenever they could. A column of ROK Marines in M-24's with a few M-41's tried to give me a real bad day (for the rest of my life) because I proceeded to pass them in a M-151 Mutt and they got mad at me cutting in and out of the column and tried to reduce my Mutt to the size of a shoebox between two tanks. Close but no cigar. :P
