    I think someone tried that, in the States, or here, and it was thoroughly condemned.

    I don't think thats where he was going with that. War memorabilia is quite common and has more to do with nostalgia than the profititibility of dead people.
    Yes the battle was awful but how many rich hollywood producers have made millions off of WWII?

    I like the history of it and I would be interested in a Stanilgrad Special (maybe call it a Comrade Special)

    also if I could buy all thse guns together as a collection and save money over buying them individually, I would be super stoked. Also, it would be sweet if potential combo had a Russian overcoat and fur hat.

    Oh I guess I am a evil gun owner now as I have many Winchester commerative rifles too. I will go down to the local reserve and burn them in a big pile as I would not want offend anyone especially our productive and crimeless native population. How about you buy them from me for about 90 thousand big ones and you can destroy them and feel all good about yourself. My motive was not to offend but to enjoy firearms and their history. I also have many other commerative weapons such as from KOREA - D-DAY - ETC. Get a life there buddy.

    Any supporting evidence? I find that a little far fetched seeing as the only game genre I played since 1997 was first person shooters and they generally are released around gift giving holidays

    Another great Russian language World War 2 film that has come out semi-recently is The Fortress of War (a.k.a. The Brest Fortress), if you like realistic and bleak, it is well worth the watch.

    How far inside your butt did you have to reach to find that "statistic"?

    Maybe just call a two-fer sale and it won't offend anyone, hopefully.
