So what do you guys think Kerry brought home with him?

An Ak-47 or an SKS-56?

From the outdoor life Interview of Bush and Kerry

Bottom of the fourth page of the Interview

Quote:
OL: Are you a gun owner? If so, what is your favorite gun?

Bush: Yes. My favorite gun is a Weatherby, Athena 20-gauge (over/under).

Kerry: My favorite gun is the M-16 that saved my life and that of my crew in Vietnam. I don’t own one of those now, but one of my reminders of my service is a Communist Chinese assault rifle.

I want to know how he did it. I've seen an instruction that regulated and perhaps prohibited Kerry from bringing an AK-47 home from the war.

On the other hand, maybe it was a postwar gift to him from the Vietnamese communists or ChiComs for all John Kerry's enthusiastic support of their political goals.

He also claims to own a B-40 rocket launcher he brought home from the Feb. 28 incident. No idea how he could get it through Tan Son Nhut unless he was able to bribe the provost marshal.
