Interesting and if the casting is crisp I'll pick up a set- nearly everything there could be used for WW2 also. Any reviews of their Austro-Hungarian Infantry Equipment (1:35)? I saw a set in my LHS but didn't open the box

That's a pretty esoteric set - these are the first 1/35 M91 Mosin Nagant rifles I have ever seen and that lever action is an 1895 Model Winchester, which was a favourite of US President Teddy Roosevelt. There are very few pictures of these rifles in Russian handsbut a few showed up with the Finns during World War II.
