Stalin, Khrushchev and Tito gave you a bunch of them to test, right?Glad you come out. I really have enjoyed a lot of different Com-Bloc weapons. Used to have several hundred, but have sold most now. Age catching up I guess.
Some pictures would be greatly appreciated.

You may have a lot of value there! Prices on Russia made firearms have been going through the roof, since the start of the plandemic. And have you seen what Norinco/Polytec AK's are going for? Enough to take out a small loan on. I feel fortunate to have aquired a nice arsenal refurb Tula SKS for $125 , a decade or so ago. I paid $129 at Big 5 sporting goods store for my Russian 91/30 about 5 yrs or so ago. And those have also shot up to $600 and more depending on manufacturer, markings, ect.
Glad I'm not just starting out now. It's getting to be late in the game.

The last picture is of my next build, a Romanian PM.90. I personally assembled all the long guns, including the VZ-61 other than the 56s-1 and the Vepr-12. I have many more, so if anyone is interested in anything in particular, I can probably post a few pictures. I also have uniforms, field gear and magazines. I also have a extensive bayonet collection including so hard to find and rare variants. I would also like to see some of what you all have as I enjoy looking at pictures very much.
