My top favorite is the iconic picture of Thomas Keith from ST2:

...Currently making a team loosely inspired by these images:

Bandanas, Boonie hats & bad hair cuts. Stoners, cut down M-60s & ammo vests for mags and 40mm rounds.

What weapon is this guy carrying? Looks like a Sten with a silencer but would be surprised if it was.

It is indeed - They where used in small numbers as a interim between the suppressed M3 and the S&W 76

Some operator cut the stock and kept is as a supplement in the PRC-77 accessory/antenna pouch instead of the long antenna assembly.

Some early-sneaky-stuff! ;)

My first thought would be a silenced Swedish K, but it does look alot like a sten.
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

Yup, suppressed Sten. All kinds of odd weapons. Silenced  HDM .22 cal pistols, 9mm S&W ‘Hush Puppy’ pistols and a variety of SMGs including Stens.

Time for some releases then.

We have placed in the shop, in an attempt to get you to part with money, a few new Vietnam items.

Ford Mutt: The vehicle comes with an option of 4 weapons. 50Cal, 30 Cal, M60 and Grenade Launcher (Just because I felt like it. Some stowage. Plus a bloody big trailer. There are three coupling ring options as well so the trailer and vehicle can be shown towing or not.

Mighty Mite: As wished for by Carlos but really done as it was too cool not to.  This comes with an M60 option and stowage plus another bloody big trailer with coupling options.

Then there are two crew packs. Each is specifically designed to fit each vehicle although they can with a little work be fitted into either vehicle. Better than that the open handed chaps such as the drivers come with spare weapons which can be attached to make them other passengers. Then they can also be used with other vehicles for example the Otter. As tank riders on the Patton. Or as passengers in a chopper. Phew so many options.
