Ser-g,
Basic rule is that modern, i.e. after the 1950's, KGB Generals wore army uniforms with red piping...there are a few threads here dealing with it...the "1980's KGB Generals" items with blue piping, etc. I feel are simply made up, or possibly made for some never done uniform change. Tretov is 100% on for this. His Petrov grouping was superb, and shows the regular army uniform being worn...also, this is what is shown in the KGB museum itself. Check out the other threads for more details, does not make a lot of sense to go over it again in much detail in this thread.
