Nice to see someone shoot without taking the gun off their sholder to work the bolt for once! The Russian M-44 is a great little rifle, dirt cheap too...

I love the sound of 7.62x54r in the morning.

Most of my friends complain about shooting in winter, even though we are from MINNESOTA and the cold isn't anything new. But, I love shooting in winter because there is never anybody at the outdoor ranges. Get to fool around without getting dirty looks from the old guys, or other stupid people my age who don't know squat about firearms who are bothering me about what my weapons are. I would love to get an M44, but there pretty pricey at all the gun shops here.

I have one thats was made in 1942 awesome gun

This is how you really handle an M44, awesome!
I have not fired mine enough to see it if has the 'sticky bolt' cosmoline issue. Mine was imported by Samco Global in Miami, and was made in 1944.

the bolt sounds great, mines difficult to work on my shoulder.

Yes. The Mosin Nagant rifle platform was developed in 1891. It was updated and revised in 1931. The M91/30 is probably the most prolific model, and has a long ~28" barrel.
The M38 carbine- developed around 1938 has is a shortened 91/30. The M38 has the same barrel length as the M44, the M44 just adds a folding bayonet to the design.
The M44 carbine was developed in 1944, and probably saw use in the later part of the war by the Russians.

Yeah, the rifle in the video actually belongs to a friend of mine. It's an M44 brought to the US by "PW IMPORTS". It's very nice.
I've got an M44 myself, but it is one of the Century imports. It does have a bit of the sticky bolt syndrome.

Hmm haven't seen a PW imports one, mine is Century also (91/30 actually) and has the slightest stickiness

I've got two 91/30s as well (one Izhevsk 91/30 and one Tula 91/30). My Izzy almost requires a rubber mallet to work the bolt. The Tula is a little better...
Oh, and a correction, I was wrong. It's not PW Imports, it's PW Arms out of Redmond, Washington.
All of my Mosins are CAI imported though. My M44 actually is mis-marked. Century had a mix up with their engraver and my M44 is marked "7.78x26R". They sent a letter out about it...I never sent it back though. ;-)
