I have a couple of questions about the Swedish SMG Carl Gustaf 45[ABC] 
aka "the Swedish K". I have seen pictures of it being used by
U.S. Special Forces (S.E.A.Ls ?) in Vietnam, I have also seen a picture of 
it with an silencer(not standard equipment even in the Swedish 
Special Forces :-)

- Can somebody tell where and when the U.S. armed forces bought those SMG,
  because U.S wasn't very popular in Sweden at the time of Vietnam.

- Point out a reference to the silencer, i.e. where was it manufactured, 
  technical data, etc...

- I would like to hear the opinons from someone who have used it in 
  actual combat.

Regards/Micke
