That is just too purty to be a real Mosin........

Top is what I think is an M38 Finn Civil Gaurd rework. Bottom 1943 Izzy 90/30. Both are good shooters.

You don't see many Finn M38's.  That's a keeper.

I have a 43 Izzy also, but it's just so-so on accuracy.  I'm thinking of using my M39 for the service rifle matches at the Ikes this spring, since they're going to allow rifles other than the standard CMP legal ones.  Until I talk SWMBO into letting me build a AR, that is :D

Hi guys
I'm kinda new to this forum, but I thought I'd jump in and put up a few pics of the M44 I picked up last week.

Saw a couple of guys with one of those at the Bullet Hole yesterday.  Looked like fun, but for the life of me I could not figure out the caliber.  Can someone clue me in on that?

After I qualified for Rifleman at the Lincoln Appleseed I pulled out my M39 and shot a round with it just for fun.  It actually did pretty good, other than the slow reloads.  I only got half my rounds off in the rapid fire stages.

7.62x54r 

It is a very old, rimmed cartridge that is fairly similar to .308/ .30-06  in it's ballistics.

I think everybody should own at least one of these rifles.
Just the history alone is worth the price, and you'd be hard pressed to find another rifle for that money that is the equal of these.
