Any 6mm ranges for US/ARVN in Vietnam with M14 rather than M16?

Any 6mm ranges suitable for both sides of the Falklands?

H&R would be a good bet and perhaps the mainforce line of all prone figures,GHQ does not yet have any suitable figures for ARVN or cold war Brits or Falklands…Pendraken 10mm has a falklands line.

TBH in 6mm I really wouldn't get too concerned about depicting small arms on figures. Knowing which bases are which is easier done by selective basing (small stones of particular colours, placing of flock blobs or even number of figures – four for an M14 group, 3 for an M16 group) than peering at the figure on a wysiwyg basis

And Main Force do company size packs and very nice figures

Second for Main Force, very easy to paint and sturdy too.

BTW search on ronny8664 on ebay for a fine line of Vietnam riverine boats

Irregular miniatures has a Vietnam and Modern range of figures in 6mm. This includes VC.

Side item Irregular does have reporters and camera teams in 6mm for VC support/VC targets.

As I recall, ronny8664 is Ian Starling and his one-man company Amphibmods. He does very very good work in 1/300. Last I knew, you could email him for a price list.
