Pardon?
Not sure what you mean here.
East germany was amred with warsaw pact kit while west germnay used nato items (and a lot of leftover whermacht stuff in the early days)
Sall wars from 45 - 80 have used a variety of wepaons form many different nations, many smal countries cant produce their own small arms and so buy it in or licencse thie own versions.
point in hand being argentina fought the flaklands war wiht thusands of wepaons sold to them by us.... most their smgs were british stirling smg and they had a few slrs and gimpys too as well as us m16s.
in vietnam the vietcong used whatever they could get hold of.

I interpreted it as:
Did all the German weapons used in Vietnam come from the Soviets after the 2nd World war?
Ah i have no idea then, i doubt it.
my mony would be on various shady governamnet and arms dealers.
You've seen lord of war right:?
same buisness then as now.
look recently at kosovo, and ive seen copys of most modern weapons made in local workshops
the even do a mini uzi , called the ERO, its a carbon copy of the mini uzi
and you can buy them without a licence, just dont bring them home at the end of your holiday, sell it on, or dump it.
car boot sales in eastern europe have virtually any warsaw pact issue gun pre 1990 that you could wish for.

Silly boy.
Of course not, these have proper grip and are sturdy, nothing like slippers.
"I think we are in rats' alley - Where the dead men lost their bones."
Mate of mine has that style of footwear for his Ninjitsu class in Sandiacre, they were more like boots then shoes though. Pretty interesting looking but cost about £50.

Mate of mine has that style of footwear for his Ninjitsu class in Sandiacre, they were more like boots then shoes though. Pretty interesting looking but cost about £50.
I have both types, i have some martial arts knee length ones that are softer soled for climbing and fighting and the ankle wwii ones which are more like a jungle boot.
Ankle ones were £33 posted, knee ones were aquired so no idea howmuch they go for. I just thought they weremore in keeping than western combat boots and i'm not airsofting in truck tyre sandals.
