[QUOTE="ronny, post: 2140661, member: 8853"] I've never heard this before, but why would you think BS? Personally, I would question whether that many Soviet citizens actually had .22 rifles in the city of Stalingrad, but if they did, I'd bet there'd be a lot of Germans with small round holes in their bodies. The environment would be perfect. Urban, close quarters, building to building. Nothing snuffs an eyeball like a 22 lr. It's hard for a reasonably good shot with a reliable .22 rifle to miss a head-sized target inside 100 yds. [/QUOTE]
