Hi Everyone,
It's interesting to see how big Airsoft is in Russia. Here in Canada it's popular but nowhere what it seems to be over there.
I find it very interesting that Russian players are re-enacting British/American even Canadian soldiers. We had a few Russian players on our message boards asking about Canadian gear. Over here we have quite a few players re-enacting Russian soldiers!

I have a question for you guys though. Recently I saw some pictures posted online from a big game held on May 2-3, 2004.
This picture here http://www.macik.h1.ru/strike/moscow/pa ... CT3735.jpg that was posted it extremely interesting in that he is carrying a VSS Vintorez sniper rifle.
Does anyone have any information at all on it?! I've been trying for a good year now to try and make this replica myself but because it is so Rare I can't find any parts.
Please if anyone has some information I would love it if you could share.

Thank you!

Hi Gish!
Glad to see you here!
You can find so less info about VSS because it's used in special operations by special forces. For example - by "Alfa" antiterrorists team.
Here you can see some links to info about VSS, but it's in Russian, sorry:
