NKVD rifles gimnasterka

[LeeG]

Hey fellas,
I thought I would share my NKVD rifles gimnasterka with you. This belonged to a senior lieutenant from one of the rifle troops.
(By the way, I am presently in search of a blue-top NKVD visor cap, so if any of you are thinking of ridding yourself of one--let me know!).

Nice early WW2 one! can you please zoom in reeeeally close on the Rifles insignia? I have never pawed any "live" before! Are those the screwback type, or prong back?

[LeeG]

Hey Rick,
They are screw-back. Here are some closer shots.

I apologize, my digital camera doesn't seem to be up to the task here. Another shot.

Those are great! MY when I can borrow one camera views of my Village Idiot Smocks come out looking like pillowcases, so I have to use a scanner... which rather limits what can "fit."
