Also there are large numbers of Captured Japenese and Lend Lease Weapons (such as the ones from the states, given to southeast asian geruillas fighting the japenese) that were given to the Guerillas from china. so in reality any weapon chould exist in the Vietcongs hands. As well as many older french weapons left over from the years of occupation. Heres another list of weapons

Ariska (type 38 and 99)
Type 100 smg
