First Carbine!!

Post by kworm99 »

Bought my first MN about a year ago, and have yet to add a carbine to the group. Hadn't left the house in two days due to inclement weather and I started to get a little antsy. So I did my usual rounds of the local pawn shops today, and there she was... 1947 Izhevsk M44 :)

Beautiful stock, not surprising for a post war gun. What type of shop did you find it in?

I didn't know that when I picked it up. But it was in such good condition there was no way I was leaving without it.
