Did the AVRN, NVA, and VC have trouble with using their weapons from other countries due to their shorter height? From what I've heard, some AVRN soldiers had some trouble with firing their m1 garands due to being unable to handle the high recoil.

I'm a 5'1 turbomanlet and I've never had trouble shooting 30-06 even with hot hunting loads. Unless those gooks were very malnourished, I'm sure they could handle it

I recall reading that large numbers of pump shotguns were sent to Vietnam to aid in village defense for friendlies.
Recoil of the guns and the length of stock caused most to be warehoused and other weapons to be issued.

AVRN mostly got smaller M1 and M2 Carbines for that reason.

Somewhat related: No one did war crimes in Vietnam like the South Koreans

I've heard that some Vietnamese soldiers would prop their Type 53 mosin against a tree when shooting due to their fear of the recoil.

I believe that in he book Chickenhawk (which everyone here should read) the author at one point states that if the South Koreans were allowed to run the war it would be over in a year. There wouldn't have been a lot of Vietnamese left though.

The man that dry cleans my shirts is former ROK Army and a Vietnam War vet. One of these days, I'll work up the courage to ask him about it. Something tells me the last time he saw combat was in April/May of '92.

The VNAF (South Vietnamese Air Force) was suppose to have been given B-57s by the USAF as their first jets A few were turned over for a trial run, but the Vietnamese pilots disliked them because they had stiff mechanical controls that took a lot of physical strength to operate, which was hard for the relatively small Vietnamese. Only one of the VNAF pilots who flew them actually liked them enough to really support keeping them, and he was killed in a freak ground accident when the brakes on one of the planes somehow got released and the plane ran him over (not kidding - this really happened). After that, the Americans gave up on the Vietnamese B-57s and eventually ended up giving them much lighter and easier-to-control F-5s and A-37s instead.

Yes, the board has become horribly infantile as of late.

Asian manlet who regularly shoots a Lee Enfield here.

No problems at all. I regularly hit within the 10 ring offhand, and on some days I shoot better offhand than from the bench for some reason. I have more trouble with the iron sights than anything since it's a No1 Mk3.

I do find the MAS 36 easier to point due to the short length but I don't shoot it as often since ammo is much harder to get.
