You may want to consider changing the color of the wood on the rifles. Check out images of these rifles. Commonly Seen Rifles:
Mosin-Nagant (M1891): The primary and most common rifle for both Polish and Soviet troops during the war, the M1891 was a standard-issue bolt-action rifle for both sides. German Gewehr 98: The Polish forces acquired and used a significant number of these German WWI rifles, sometimes marked with "FB" for the Polish armory at Warsaw. French Lebel and Berthier rifles: Poland also inherited and utilized these French rifles, which were common among various independence forces in the region.
American Berdan Rifles: While an older design, this single-shot rifle was still in use by some forces, a remnant of the Imperial Russian Army. Winchester Model 1895: This lever-action rifle, designed by John Browning, was used by some Russian and Baltic forces and could be seen in the conflict. |

Cheers guys, Royston do say hello if your there. Grey Legion I dont think the colour is too far out, but either way having pretty much finished 4 armies with rifles in this colour its a bit late to change them all now:

often there is a choice between 100% accurate and what looks cool (but still is close/plausable). I often choose the latter |

That Lewis gunner conversion is cool ! WRT rifles, thought they'd be a bit darker, but a wash of dark brown should tone it down. As noted for colour YMMV by batch, age, polishing, handling etc. |
