Pictures show it to be a 1947 Izhevsk M38 or 91/30, full length picture will clarify that. If the buttplate and floor plate numbers match it would be nice. The stock looks to have been refinished. That may be where the front escushions went. 1947 must have been a harsh time as I have an M44 that has all the bluing gone also.

The second pic shows the full length. It is a m44 with the bayonet removed.

It is a 1947 M44 with a missing bayonet. I didn't blow up the pictures to see it all.

More than likely a result of Bubba getting a hold of it or if you have a good imagination I could begin saying maybe a Vietnam bring-back? History muddled by man would be a great assessment to my way of thinking. Bill
