Ok, so we have rifles and the now a kitbashed PPsh, so didn't the Russkies also widely use an anti tank type gun/rifle ??? Does anyone have a picture of one ??? I need to outfit these Russian troops I got that are multiplying like rabbits

Are there any other hand held or carried weapons the reds used in WWII ??? Thanks, Da General

Thanks Capt., Stug

I think I'll try to make that PTRS-41

Or at least something that looks like it

I remember seeing footage of them using tracer rounds when engaging a tank. Da General

i made a russian anti tank rifle from a chap mei gun stock (of some kind), a gi joe ski pole and some plastic bits. Looks pretty good too.

I'm going to want to make a couple of DT's too but not sure how yet...

Is there a link to the thread where the other Russian rifles and whatnot are discussed?

I'd love to know what weapons would be more WW2 period accurate for the Russians and where to find them!
