			Manufacturer is the weapon-page field used for the company, arsenal, state factory, or production group associated with a weapon. It is part of the real-world information table, separate from gameplay stats such as [[Damage]], [[Ammo]], or [[Fire Rate]].

			==How It Is Used==
			Many Vietnam-era weapons were produced by more than one factory or country, so the manufacturer field may list several names or use a broad label such as ''Many'' when the exact maker is not important for the page. For handmade or locally produced weapons, the field may describe the production type instead of naming a single company.

			The field should be specific when the page is about a known model from a known maker, and more general when the weapon had wide production or uncertain sourcing.

			==Related Pages==
			* [[Weapons of Vietnam]]
			* [[Weapon Type]]
			* [[Weapon Script Name]]
