Just what the title says. Looking primarily for Soviet weapons, but anything will help. True-scale or Heroic-Scale are both fine with me since the models they'll be going on are a little more on the smallish end of Heroic scale and I'm fairly positive that nothing would look off scale with them.

So far all I've been able to find are Maxmini and The Assault Group, but the TAG stuff looks rough and ugly.

Thanks in advance!

*edit:
Also! If anyone happens to know of a company that makes 28mm Panzerschrecks, that would be incredibly helpful as well!

Hasslefree Miniatures have some modern weapons here:

I used Maxmini and RAFM for Russian weapon mods for my 99%-er game.

Hasslefree have lots of guns some seem to be based on real guns some might be a little more sci-fi but there might be some thing useful

Are you looking for specifically Panzerschrecks or RPGs and Stingers?

I was going to suggest Hasslefree as well -- excellent folks to deal with!

This guy has some, although they're pricey: shapeways.com/shops/gangwar

Here are some more:

Pig Iron Productions makes some weapon sprues (the Kolony ones might fit your needs):

Anvil Industry UK makes a lot of nice 40k-ish weapons:

Both actually! I want the 'schreks because I think they'll look good on the new Eisenkern models, but didn't think about that until after I had posted and couldn't crosspost to the 28mm WWII board too. (d'oh!) Come to think of it, I bet MP44s/Sturgewehrs would look pretty good on them as well.

I had a totally different idea in mind for the soviet weapons. Some GW fantasy figures are getting a bit of a make over to become rebel/insurgent types so I can increase my converting skills. Something I saw over on Dakka (Skaven Insurgents.) inspired me to try something similar, but less desert themed.

Thanks for the suggestions so far, I had no idea RAFM made separate weapon sprues. I just remembered that Reaper makes some as well, but theirs don't have a particularly useful mix of weapons for what I want to do.

Oh my. RAFM makes some awesome drones too. Double thanks for that suggestion.

Reaper Minis sells weapons packs. Head over to:

reapermini.com

and type Weapons in the search box …

The soon to be released wargames factory zombie survivors kit might be worth it just for the gun sprue.
