Do not forget the "Irish Flying Column" by Musketeer Miniatures - they suit nearly perfect for German Workers Militias.

Sorry, but I disagree. The Clothing is OK, but I can't imagine in which way german leftist workers would have got SMLEs. Only the shotgun set is an option.

I started to play around with this a few years ago. I was building forces from primarily Old Glory WWI Germans and WWII Partizans/Resistance.  I don't know if Bob Beattie is on this group, but he bought the figures from me. He may be willing to share photos of them.

Maybe we should email Musketeer and ask if an "East European variant" set could be added to the wishlist ? It might not be a huge job for him to convert up a set of masters ?

Bob Murch's Pulp Germans look very "Freikorps" i.e. somewhere between WW1 and WW2 in uniform and equipment details:

Actually, more then half of the rifle armed chaps don't carry SMLEs.

Only one of the advancing and two of the firing poses.
