My poor choice of words- by original I meant thst It wad finished as it was when I got it from the importer, did nothing to it..

I understand now. Thats seems much more realistic. Nice rifle though

[QUOTE=spinecracker;. My rifle's serial number is PG4351[/QUOTE]

I, too, am now a new member of the '46 M44 club. Ironically, my rifle carries a S/N that is ~ 2500 before yours with the same alpha characters before it. Pretty cool!

I suppose I need to fill the gap with a 1946. 1944/1945/1947 in inventory. Nice rifles and a Blast to shoot. Pun intended.

Hooked... yep ya better get one to "join the in crowd"... I heard they aren't making them anymore! LOL!!!

Tlsher... I think we need photos!!!! :)

Left to right 1945/1947/1944 Eyes open for a 1946.

wow what a nice rifle......does it shoot as good as it looks?

Not sure if you refering to me. If so the 1945 is the only one of the lot I have fired and I have not fired it for accuracy assesment yet , just function and fireball.

i was refering to you.....Thanks for the info and again nice rifle :thup:

Shot the 1944 M44 this weekend. The bolt is a bit stickey upon closing and I need to bench for accuracy but the fired brass looks good and shooting at dusk my friends liked the muzzle flash.
