Automatic Rifles USA: BAR Russia: DP-28 Japan: Nambu (bren copy) Britian: Bren Germnay: FG-42, vz26
good luck, I have an nearly complete collection, with a few missing from the above list
here is some advice from the other side of the veil.....Avoid getting caught up in the French & itialin stuff a whole lot ie: pistols since there was never a real issued pistol for these two, the jap stuff is nice but you don't have to go there you can just do allies or Europe.
Don't get caught up in the crazieness of period peoces if you can be satisfied without them. A springfield GI 1911 cost $300 a real WWII 1911 cost $1300+, a romanian TT-33 cost $200 a russian tt-33 cost $600. You already have pointed out that you have done this with the Yugo mauser.
The SMG's are expensive but obtainable, MGS has a PPSH-41, Khar makes WWII style Thompsons, the MP-44 and the sten are the problems.
