This is the rifle that started me on my mission to collect 1944 Mosin Nagants, it's a 1944 Tula M44 built on an early 20's Tula big hammer reciever. The reason I can only narrow the reciever down to the early 20's is the tang has been scrubbed, but Tula only stamped there recievers with the Hammer cartouche for a couple of years in the early 20's. It is in a late war stock with an amber finish similar to post war 91/59's and has a very intresting hand gaurd repair. Its a mix of Izhevsk and Tula parts and has several Russian names scratched into the buttstock and the underside of the neck of the stock.

Very Nice!!!! Seems they scrubbed the Tang on many of the Hex M44's... MY Hex has a scrubbed Tang along with the Barrel shank.

I vote yes, so many interesting and unusual features in one carbine. I like it a lot. I agree, great handguard repair. I've never seen one like it before.
