Very true, the Czech and Polish ones tend to be a lot better built and cared for than the Russian ones, it is very difficult to tell from a single pic, but the flat machined spot under the sight appears on quite a few Czech ones.

Some of the other Soviet-designed vehicles were also made mostly in Czechoslovakia (BMP-1), Poland (ATS-59 and MT-LB) and Bulgaria (MT-LB), and the vast majority of them went directly to USSR.
