I don't know much about Soviet WWII small arms.... what are these long rifles? From another pic they do not appear to be heavy machine guns, and they're being shouldered so they can't be too heavy......

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!
