Thanks. Yeah, since I fired yours last year, I've looked at all the ones that came up at gun shows. Pretty disappointing. But, I really didn't go beyond that to find one. When these came up from AIM, I just went ahead and did it, as my collection is heading mainly in the WWI/WWII military revolver, rifle direction anyway.sookandy wrote:
You finally broke down and got one!Nice!
You have to hold the tab in the channel when you pull twist it back to 12 o'clock. Just grip the lower piece that the lug rides in the channel when you twist. It will work.rentz wrote:

Just got done putting it back together except for the bolt I just can't seem to get it back together and lock back at 12 without coming out of the channel
Only thing I can think of is the firing pin needs to be backed off, I'll try it later when I'm not so tired from standing in the heat all afternoon cleaning this
Thanks to you rentz, I ordered one of the M44s. Came yesterday covered in cosmoline head to toe. I broke her down all the way, including breaking down the bolt and she cleaned up very nice. A gorgeous, all numbers matching, Izhevsk marked 1944, with a very nice stock. I am very pleased with the $169 purchase, even with the import marks. Makes the ones at the local gun shows for $200- $400 look like beaters. Good luck with yoursrentz wrote:So I don't even have my m44 yet and I've already ordered a sniper model that aim just got In stock
I don't even have my mosins and I've already got mosinitis
