I cannot dispute what you say about Carlos using an M14 other than to say i believe if he did, it would have been in a night time deployment only.The only bolt action used to my knowledge were the M-70 in 30/06 and later in the war the Mod. 700 in 7.62x51 (.308) If you have the book,The One Round War you will see what rifles were used. A very informative read on the Viet Nam war. ..... SEMPER FI!</blockquote>
