I have searched all my books and watched (nearly) all youtube-vids about the VM in Indochina.
I have seen following weapons in pics or film:
Rifles: 98k No. I Mk. III No. IV MK. I Mosin-Nagant Rifle and Carbine Arisaka Lebel 1886 Berthier Rifles and Carbines 1907, 1916 MAS 36 Garand Carbine .30 M1 even a P14 or P17 rifle
Submachine guns: MAT 49 Sten Thompson M1928 and M1 MAS 38
(so far no MP40 yet)
Machineguns: ZB 26 and ZB 30 FM 24/29 DP 1928 MG Maxim M1910 even one B.A.R. M1918 Japanese MG on tripod (strip fed, don´t know the exact type) MG 34 (!?)
Did anyone saw another type on pic or film?

You want to get hold of a copy of 'Le Viet Minh' by Eric Deroo and Christophe Dutrone. Excellent detail, photos and sketches.

Okay, I will take a look onto it.
Is it in French only?
