The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

Hello

Does anyone know if there where original short mosin nagant sniper's? I've found one from 1944 for sale with a PU mount on it.
I'm waiting on good pictures.

Thanks for reading.

M44 snipers are fakes.

Also M38's with a PU setup are fakes also.

How about this any carbine length Mosins with sniper mounts of the permanent type are fakes? Bill

What kind of idiot would mount a sniper rig on a carbine in the first place? They haven't the range to make good use of the equipment.

This is a good example if you have questions ask. A PM to an administrator is fine for open auctions you don't want the world to know about.

The Model 1944 Carbine was designed with the earlier Russian Model 1938 Carbine as an official blueprint, with the only major deviation in overall design being the addition of some form of bayonet. Bayonet testing was undertaken in 1943, with a specimen designed by N.S. Semin becoming design of choice
