Well it's a lazy day around the Miller homestead so I decided since I now have at least 1 example of all 6 years of Soviet M44 production to get them together for a group pic.

Nice collection Mr. Miller. Thanks for posting.

I've only got one M44. It's a 1946.

I also only have one m44. Mine was made in Poland in 1953.

The quality of those post war MN's is quite good, and they are getting hard to find.

I too have one. A 1948 Izhevsk, the stock is a blonde wood like several of yours.
Yours are very nice, and if i had:
a. An understanding wife, and
b. Mo' money,
I would like to collect Mosin Nagants as well. I am very fond of them, my only other is a 1943 91/30, an Izhevsk as well.

Thanks RPD, and yes I have a very understanding wife, especially when it comes to all my Mosin Nagants. :mrgreen:
