Default Re: Captured weapons in soviet hands

Polish weapons was taken out from storages and used during desperate days in Moscow Workers Militia defenders. They were units equipped in ex-Polish captured carbines HMG, and AT- Rifles

1. Moscow workers militia on defense position 1941 with polish LMG 7.92 wz.28 Browning




2. With 7.92mm wz.35 KbUr AT-Rifle also around Moscow



3. The same area with wz.28 Browning



4. Looks like a ex-Polish Bayonet



4 .Girls from Moscow defence with Polish wz.29 Carabines




Link to Russian site about Workers Militia in 1941 they were compareble to Volksturm in Germany and in similar they fought with whatever weapon they could get http://westfront.narod.ru/opolchenie/dno_arms.htm
