I would come back from the grave and make my wife pay!

Yeah, but the bore is good.

I am really curious where all those could be? So what if they are rusted.. I'd fill my boots!

Imagine, at one time those were in decent condition...

At the bottom of the link to those pictures of the destroyed/rusted guns there is a "Back" button. Click on that and go back eventually to the home page of the web site that posted those pictures. It is a United Kingdom web site, and a part of "Project X" which is a citizen/partisan type of group that wants to be prepared in the event the UK is ever overrun by a foreign power(s). The group is aware of and probably inspired by similar planning which officially existed during World War Two. However, this group appears to be led by private citizens.

I first saw this group of pictures about 10 years ago and they and the link made their way around various gun forums.

As I recall this was a dump of captured and abandoned weapons left over from the Vietnam conflict and the pictures were taken by one of a group of private contractors hired by the Viet Nam to clean up this and other sights throughout the country.

On the other site, these were determined to be part of a contractor cleanup in Viet Nam.

Those Tommy guns really made me cry.
