Question about my Norwegian resistance fighter

This is my 3-hour-old Norwegian partisan. I’m going to put some paint on him and other custom touches. I was thinking of using the backpack from a NVA figure to carry the rounds from a German RP43 Panzershreck. Do you guys think NVA backpack with RPG-7 rounds are close enough for to pass as RP43 rounds? Thanks for any feedback.

I don't know about the technicalities of your weapon, but cool idea for a figure! I have a Norweigan friend whose parents were part of the resistance movement. When I visited them in Norway three years ago, they had some very interesting stories.

Good use of the Al Gordino and BOB figures.
Here is a link on the group:

Neat article on how the Norwegians ruined Germany's Heavy water and set them back in creating the Atomic Bomb...

very cool. And I think the weapon is ok--the us supplied everyone. Or, you could give him a captured mp-44.
