That's a lovely 7.62 x 54R Mosin Nagant M44.
Looks like the stock is in good shape too.
I need a visit to casa de Daniel...that's sweet.
m44 is the carbine version of the 91/30. round receiver...which arsenal? also i have been keeping an eye on Dunham's sports...they are selling the tins when nobody else has them. 89-119 each... check their adds... call ahead to make sure they have but i have been able to get some stock
Very nice! And where did you score this find?
and +1 on the visit to casa de Daniel
Very cool. I believed I looked that weekend after the gun show and they were out of stock already so you apprently got one of the last ones
We gotta schedule a range day. Just dont know where. We can have an old school range day. You have that, I have my mauser, and Charlie has one he is wanting to shoot.
Beautiful. A fine choice Komrade....
An enemy at the gate you are now...

If I remember correctly they produced 30 something million of these rifles in different configurations and at different armories. Old Tula made are most prized. You got a pretty one... Did it come packed in cosmoline? Hate that crap!
Some shoot very well 2 to 3 inches - others not so well - Let us know if you have a shooter or not! Picture of target.
Congrats on the new bundle of Joy.
