Stalingrad special possible

Hi John. I just seen the movie STALINGRAD on one of the movie channels and I must say it was quite well made. It has sub-titles but that made the movie even more genuine I think. Even my daughter watched it with me and enjoyed it. All the PPSH - k98-nagant-tokarevs etc got me a thinkin is it possible to do a christmass special to honour ALL who perished. I see you have a wood Pietta 22 PPSH and a Tokarev pistol for the Russian deal and over on the German side you have the Star pistol and the Norinco K98 22 trainer. This would make a great SPECIAL hint hint. My daughter now wants a ppsh-22 under the tree!

I agree it would be sweet to have a Stalingrad deal, but cmon its gotta have a Mosin in it, as it was it's the main russian rifle, and svt wouldn't hurt. My suggestion would be do the deal on anniversary of lifting of the siege. with a USSR flag thrown in

I like your mantra. Add a SVT and a Tokarev. I am sure that those Marstar maniacs have a T-34 somewhere too.

I like the way this discussion is going

Basing a sale on the tragic deaths of millions is in bad taste.

Not saying I agree or disagree, but with that train of thought, WWII sales, Red rifle sales, Cowboy sales, ect would fall in the same category, but to each their own

im not talking of basing on death, talking of sale on day of siege end, to celebrate the end of the suffering. keep in mind more civilians died in the city than soldiers. Also it does mark the turning point in WW2.

I have been there ,now its known as Volgograd and i can tell you the Russian's exploit the hell out of the place and story, they dont seem to mind. many vendors selling trinkets on the side of the street , heres one that was made with a old German flare , blown up 8mm case with a unspent primer and what seems to be a live 8mm round! also a spent 54r , crazy i was able to get it on the plane lol.

So if more people do it it makes it less shameful?

Maybe in a few years we will have Remembrance Day BLOWOUTS!
