Hey folks!
Today I would like to put forward a suggestion for fixing the appearance of your AT infantry when carrying theirs AT rifles on their back.
As far as I have seen every nation’s soldiers have taken up the bad habit of having their weapons on their backs upside down. Now, this isn’t that much of an issue if the said rifle is short-ish, but if you look at the PTRS and the PTRD for example, they are about 2 meters long. So your average Ivan would probably trip over when it is caught up in any bush, stump or trench, not to mention the muzzle of the weapon getting damaged/fouled by dirt and whatsoever.
It can easily be fixed by having the weapon rotated 180 degrees on the back of our lads. Heck, if you are so frugal to not include a personal firearm, they should just carry it on their shoulders when not using them.
The only image I found with “Boys” being carried upside down, but they seem to have special straps and are lifted high enough. Still looks mighty uncomfortable, considering the heavy end is at the top.
