Any chance of some Taczankas (MMGs on horse drawn carts) for the 1939 Poles? 

They had loads of the things and they can be found in the army lists for Flames of War  and just about every scenario in the upcoming  Poland 1939 scenario pack from TooFatLardies  (coming soon, I'm doing late proof-reading) 

They would also be useful for WWI and Russian Civil War.

Would the Tachanka (RCW2) in the Russian Civil War section do, if fitted with new crew?

I'm assuming the Russian and Polish uniforms are different enough not to be interchangeable at 1:150 scale? Not a period, theatre or an army I know much about

RCW2 Tachanka (1) Price: £2.80
There are 100 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who can work from incomplete data

Hullo,
The russian maxim is the wrong gun, a vickers or german style maxim would be appropriate I think, but this chap used Pendraken tachankas for his poles amd did not complain: http://bucksurdu.com/blog/?p=131
