Every officer has a sidearm, so yes on the Tokarev. As for the PPSh...well it was more common for NCOs to have them since they where on the field. But as a Mayor, im sure you can get yourself one ;D

That is a common (mis)conception about the East Front. Though it is true that in places like Stalingrad one man was given a rifle and ammo and one was given just ammo, at the beginning of the war the Soviet army was not that poorly supplied. Though they weren't as well equipped as the Germans, a soldier could expect a rifle and a decent quantity of ammunition, even if that rifle may be sub-par compared to other combat weapons.

OK, so about like what? A Mosin-Nagat and twenty or thirty rounds, as well as a bayonett?

That would be pretty typical. The Mosin-Nagant would probably be foreign made (French, Dutch, or perhaps even American) and likely would've seen service in the Russian civil war.

Sixty would be pushing it as a standard load - you'd be closer to 40.

When can we start using the Tokarev? I think that was made in 1940. Well I guess I will have the Mosin, the TT-33 and a couple grenades, yes? You can already use it, but dont expected the stock to be large. Allthough it was a high quality weapon, it was expensive to make and thus given to rare soldiers. Those that did get it however had great problem of finding proper ammunition. Ahem, sonny, when was the last time you looked at the details of the Tokarev SVT-40? Obviously a long time ago. See the ammunition for the Tokarev was 7.62mm The ammo for the Mosin-Nagant was 7.62mm The ammo for the Ppsh-41 was 7.62mm now you are telling me it would be hard to find proper ammo? are you serious? They all use the same! So now I dont see why I can't have one. I know not many were around at this point but still just hand out a few. |

But quality-wise, yeah MG-34's are gonna own us |
