You know that pic was almost exactly repeated in Yugoslavia about '90-'94...so many villages looked exactly like and a couple of cast off destroyed tanks about. I wonder what dismantled the Hetzers?

Yes, that I was aware of. Liberace's AK...

I had one some years back now, a Guide lamp gun. It had lived for years wrapped in a grease covered rag, buried in the floor of a greenhouse in a box. I had some work to refurbish it. It shot...

I dunno though...these are all basic dewats aren't they? Needing parts and refurb? Those clowns can buy new guns straight from source through straw purchase or direct order. Would they bother with...
