It would be cool if Soviets dropped small arms.

I haven't seen it so I assume it not in the game but it would be great if I could pick up some of the awesome Soviet arms for the Axis players. Its not fair that conscripts can pick up the lmg42 but I can't pick up an antitank rifle or a PPHs.

Yeah, that will be implemented on the next update. DP-28s and PTRD-41s will be droppable. But don't expect they drop PPSH or any other smg. There is not a single faction that drops them.

Unfortunately smgs don't drop. Though it would be fun, if they did, but not as an individual weapon - rather a number of weapon slots, like 5/6/7, depending on the squad, that dropped it.

No. There are dropped SMGs in the campaigns, namely the MP44 in certain Airborne and PE missions.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

Personally I don't think finding a PRTD would help to kill those Russian tanks. :-X
The Russians think there sooo tough, wait till the Ostheer comes...

Small arms never dropped and never will drop. So...we're dropping this subject and locking this cause there is nothing to discuss  :)
