I just played a tactic game last night, in that game several russian guns appear, including some of the Vintorrez family. The Sniper Rifle itself can be broken down and fits in every diplomatic attache case, same goes for a SMG and a Assault Rifle ( able to clamp a grenade launcher under barrel ), all use the same calibre ammo, build especially for being subsonic and armor penetration. While itīs not really long range capability itīs a nice start. Also some SMGs are build for concealment and are so tiny that they even fit under a normal jacket without raising suspicion like some UZI variants and the MP5K. The UZI itself was earlier delivered in germany to civilians!, pre several law changes of course, it was just forbidden to assemble the parts together;) the whole kit was small and compact enough to be hidden nearly everywhere.
