I have personally been waiting for Soviet surplus to be released, but not found any so far.
I would love to own the Soviet Afgan War battledress.

I had a Soviet SKS. Brand new in cosmoline and cost $69 back in the early 1990s. They released thousands of them (if not tens of thousands) from storage onto the surplus market. They're still around but the price is much dearer now. I sold that one to upgrade. My SIL has a Soviet surplus Mosin-Nagant that was also released new from storage onto the surplus market more recently. They were running about $119 average at the local gun stores but He got it from the Base Exchange for $98.
Edit to correct typo
I bought one in Canadian Tyre last year for about £100 which was about Can $200 at the time. Great value!

Very nice...is it a de-ac or converted to single shot?
Heavens no! It’s as God intended.
Because of our draconian legislation it (Svetlana) is being held for me by a buddy in Canada for my annual trip over. Way cheaper than flying with a rifle!

The Collared 95 in ripstock, would fade nicely if you washed it enough, think mine lasted four years of use before the zip quit.You don't see many 68 pattern jackets in anything other than tiny sizes nowadays
Always preferred that shade of DPM over the more modern darker 95 shade
I have a pristine one in about size XL in my loft which I still wear occasionally when out fishing
Not very good when soaking wet though, but still a great quality jacket
Cheers,
Allan
