Original Vietnam War M60 Display Machine Gun – Constructed from USGI M60 Parts
Up for sale is a stunning Vietnam War-era M60 display machine gun, built entirely from original U.S. Government Issue (USGI) parts. This non-firing display piece captures the rugged, battle-tested look of the iconic “Pig,” the general-purpose machine gun that saw extensive use by U.S. forces in Vietnam and beyond.
This M60 has been professionally constructed as a non-functional display model, making it ideal for collectors, museums, reenactors, or as a striking centerpiece in any historical firearms collection. The receiver is demilled and inert per BATFE regulations, while the rest of the weapon is assembled using genuine U.S. military parts—including the heat shield, barrel, bipod, gas system, and top cover—all showing honest patina and service wear appropriate to a weapon of the era.
With its unmistakable silhouette and combat-proven pedigree, the Vietnam War M60 display machine gun offers a historically accurate representation of what American troops carried through the jungles of Southeast Asia. Whether you’re building out a Vietnam War display or honoring a piece of Cold War history, this is a centerpiece-grade artifact.
Examples like this are getting harder to source as surplus parts dry up. Don’t miss your chance to own a true symbol of American firepower.
