Everything matches on this rifle. The owners father was a pilot, and was supporting the ground troops. The rifle was captured by the guys on the ground after threats in a hole or cave were neutralized with white phosphorus (?)from the pilots airplane.

Were there Mexicans in Vietnam? thought I saw their trademark on the rifle
Very cool Type 53. Hopefully the owner has paperwork for the story.

Awesome bringback! Very envious as I don't have a bringback from that war (conflict) in my collection as of yet.

LOL! Sorry. That was an inside joke for my dad (he lurks here as a guest).
He and two uncles all fought through Korea and then Vietnam. After Vietnam, they questioned the use of the term, "conflict". My dad said it must have been coined by a non-combatant. His reasoning was that he'd been through the Korean WAR and Vietnam was no different. People were still shooting at and trying to kill him...
