None.  The Soviet Union can't capture weapons on the ground.  It's part of the mechanics to balance the Soviet Union.

that, and that picking up weapons will result in a crash.

Nope, this was done because currently it's not possible to make new races able to capture teamweapons ;)

Picking up weapons causes a crash?
My conscripts were happily shooting up volks with a captured LMG just a minute ago  :)

First of all, we're talking about recrewing heavy weapons.
For those, who don't know: Heavy weapons are AT-guns, mortars, HMGs and stuff like this.
Squad weapons like MG42 can still be picked up!

The next thing to know is, that currently, it's not possible for new faction to have a recrew-option.
Because of that, it functions as a "special feature" for the Red Army. Perhaps some time in the future, the DEVs figure out how to do it, and then... Well, we'll see.
