28mm Napoleonic Russian Militia armed with Muskets

"The bullet is a mad thing; only the bayonet knows what it is about,"

"Attack with the cold steel! Push hard with the bayonet!"

General Alexander Vasilyevich Suvorov

These lads are very forward with the bayonet but they can't shoot for toffee! The figures are from Elite miniatures. I have four of these and another four armed with pikes.

These boys are from Elite miniatures. They do militia armed with pikes and also muskets. The musket armed boys are still in the bag somewhere. As they say in Russia, bayonette is a clever chap while musket is a dull fellow. Pike armed chaps must be even more lively!
