OT - My other rifle is coming along
Shes a hell of a shooter! I had a great time with the M44 at 100 yards today. I mounted a KonusPro 6-24x44 scope that my dad bought me for my birthday one year. Rock solid mount and sporter bolt was used. Now I just want to order one of those Arc Angel stocks for it to top it off. REALLY pleased with how well that russian FMJ ammo shoots as well. Its a heavy rifle though thats for sure. I will weigh it tomorrow but i am guessing around 11lbs with that stock. This one has the 20" barrel but the better made, Hungarian model. Beautifully machined and the bolt is nice and slick.
Not bad for a $135 rifle huh!
Great rifle on the range as well. They bring the crowd one they see that 5 foot flame from such a small rifle LOL.

This one is Hungarian and chambered in 7.62x54, With the shorter 20" barrel its running close to a .308 while the full size mosin nagant with the 28" barrel in comparable to a 30-06.
Very famous rifles in Russia during WW2. Enemy at the gates does a fine job showing off the mosin nagant.
