So, Comrade, you would like a T-34?

[Neil Ashley]

Those of you who have an interest in Small Arms will already know that the Russian released large quantities WW2 weapons on to the market last year.

This included Russian Maxims, Pistols, Rifles, Thomson SMG's, K98's, MG34's and tripods. All were in either in rebuilt condition or unissued. The prices were also much cheaper than featured in this article. The story is that the Russian have a vast depot in a Salt Mine out-side Moscow where these weapons are coming from. Check out the Ryton Arms web site for the main UK importer of this material.

It makes sense for the Russians to sells any surplus vehicles they may have in storage, but the only war-time vehicles they are likely to have in any quanity is the T34/85.
