THE NORTH VIETNAMESE AND VIET CONG

STANDARD EQUIPMENT

BINOCULARS:

Same trusty Binoculars that the U.S. uses. Take my advice, use them to find all those pesky snipers and take them out.

PISTOL:

TT33 Pistol
Magazine Capacity: 8, with 3 extra mags.

Yes, the TT33 sidearm has one fewer round per magazine than the U.S. M1911, but honestly the procedure is still the same - you run out of ammunition with an enemy in front of you and you switch to your pistol and empty the whole thing at him. The reload time is quick, like the other sidearms.

MACHETE and PLANTATION KNIFE

The Machete and Plantation Knife look a lot cooler than the U.S.
Combat Knife, but ultimately they do the same job. Again, I've never had to resort to hand to hand combat tactically - but it sure is fun to sneak up on a buddy and carve a "hello" in his back.
