WW2 RUSSIA SVT-40 with Bubnov drum SEMI-AUTO RIFLES 1:35/1:72

The SVT-40 (Russian: Самозарядная винтовка Токарева, образец 1940 года, lit. "Tokarev self-loading rifle, model of 1940") is a Soviet semi-automatic battle rifle introduced in 1940, replacing its predecessor, the SVT-38. It was intended as a replacement for the Mosin-Nagant M91/30 as the Soviet Union's service rifle, but production numbers fell sharply in 1941 and 1942, and only small quantities were produced in 1943 - 1945, with later releases immediately going to the reserve. Production of the SVT-40 ceased in 1945, and it was withdrawn from service shortly after the end of the war.

From 1942 - 1944, the select-fire AVT-40 variant was also produced. The AKT and SKT carbine versions were also produced in small quantities from 1940 - 1943. The former was select-fire, and interestingly preceded the full-size AVT.

The SVT/AVT was also the only Soviet rifle with a detachable magazine that was typically used with a single magazine in the field (a trait ubiquitously and falsely attributed to the Fedorov Avtomat). Originally, the rifles were issued with three magazines, but magazines could be easily lost in battle, and suffered from a some lack of interchangeability from various rifles, so it was easier to equip each rifle with one well-fitted magazine, and reload them with stripper clips, despite attempts to issue more magazines (the Gewehr 43 also suffered from such issues).

There were also 15-round magazines for the SVT; these are very rare today, as their production was discontinued in 1942 due to their complexity (since wartime production couldn't maintain the level of quality required for their production), and are most likely to be found at the sites of former battles. A 20-round drum was also tested, but it was considered unreliable and quickly discontinued.

I have set them to a 1:35/1:72 ratio for easy printing, and the size comes from the data provided by the encyclopedia. You can adjust its size to any place by yourself.

Note: If using the model for 3D printing, model repairs may be needed
