2004-05-12 RARE FIND: 1:43 Metal ZIS-3-76 1942 76-mm Gun Made in UzbekSSR
I accidently came across a number of these interesting rare 1:43 metal models of the 1942 76-mm Gun ZIS-3-76. Almost everybody is familiar with a variation of this model made in Leningrad/Saint Petersburg. The interesting fact about these models is that these were made in Uzbekistan by the 60th Anniversary of the Revolution Factory when it was still a part of the USSR. There are also actual differences in the models itself:
- these models have fixators on the back (see pictures of three models: old Leningrad, new Saint Peteresburg, and Uzbek)
- these models have open window used for targeting (all other models have it sealed)
- these models have additional instrumental box on the back side of the shield.

These guns have weathered boxes as you would expect for models maybe 15-25 years old. I am offering these rare guns for $10 each or for $15 in a set with GAZ-AA.

Here are the pictures:
