Four guns that were displayed at an exhibition at a Thua Thien-Hue museum during Lunar New Year holidays last month have mysteriously disappeared.
Two Colts, a Rouleau, and a grenade launcher M-79 are missing. According to Cao Huy Hung, director of the Museum of History and Revolution, the firing pin had only been removed from one of them.
They were war booty surrendered by the Sai Gon regime’s army during the American War.
On Feb. 23, nine days after the New Year, the guns were found missing with the section doors half open and locks removed. The exact timing of the theft has yet to be determined.
All other pieces in the museum’s gun collection are safe, and police have begun an investigation.
