What an awesome M44! And it looks like its one heck of a shooter too (as well as the owner )

Congrats on finding a nice Romanian...and welcome to the forum!

Damn

I need a shot of vodka myself after seeing your photos!

First and foremost, I am glad you're ok. Dou44 have a nearly identical rupture recently (thankfully, he too was OK).

Have you checked the headspace on this rifle? Also, what ammunition were you shooting?

Man, lots of graffiti on that one! It looks like some marks have been scrubbed and stamped over too. Also, the font looks unique.

I'd grab this one for sure

It definitely sounds like you're loaded for bear...or taking over a small country! You boys be good!

It sounds like you're going to have a lot of fun! This ought to be one heck of a range report when you get back

Wow, this thread is turning into a showcase! Very impressive rifles all!

Nice '41 with some interesting features. Looks like a keeper to me

Very nice Siam, congrats!

:clap: Awesome!!! Congrats my friend! Yes, you have been wanting one for awhile and here it is! Nice score :thumbsup: As many guns as you've bought lately, I had to run back and make sure all mine were still there :lol: I bet you were estatic. I know I am smiling ear to ear...and I only saw your pho...

Gorgeous

Very nice find and congrats on completing a collection! It must feel pretty good

I assume there is a family photo in the works?

Hi Dave, I agree with the others...I am very interested in seeing photos of this one. It sounds to me like this one has been around, and that could be a very cool thing. In my opinion, these old rifles don't have to be accurate shooters to be collectible. Who knows, his may shoot just fine, but that...

You've got to love the nonchalant attitude

If I had a sniper waiting to be cleaned up, I'd have taken 3 days vacation and posting happy smilies on the forum!



Congrats Ironnewt

The waiting period seems to have gone by pretty quickly, well for me anyway

It looks like a nice, all matching M44! Congrats!

And congrats on waiting out the State

Very cool! You did very well my friend. I am anxious to see some photos when you have time

Congrats!!

While you are all busy taking photos of your Cossacks for me...might as well drag your Finn M24s out of the safe too.

Anyone have a stepped barrel M24?

Thank you...

Those are a couple of sweet videos!! I was going to make a comment something like "You may want to talk to him about finger placement when not shooting", but in good big brother fashion, you were on top of it. Excellent :thumbsup: I like at 0:54, his first shot...he takes out two targets w...

Sounds like a succesful test to me

I see a lot of holes in that paper. Looks like pretty good shooting to me!

It sounds like you had fun, that's what counts most of all. Nice job!

Thanks for the report

Man, that stock is gorgeous! It may have been awhile since you posted a Mosin, but this one is worth waiting for! I was just talking with Brad (desdem12) recently how I actually love these refurbs. I am getting anxious for Cabela's to have a $99 sale again so I can pick up another one sight unseen. ...

Very nice find! I agree...crisp and clear barrel markings. I too would have done that deal without hesitation. Nicely done

Congrats!

Yeah, that's good compensation for not getting the M38

Beautiful rifle! She looks to be in great condition. Congrats!

Brian, PM sent. Or will be once I type it

Thank you...
