My m44 carbine has the oval y mark on it which is final black powder proof and my m91/30 has the circle k mark which is point of aim proof. What does these marks mean in a little more detail?

Do you have clear pics of the marks in question?

I have pics but I can't figure out how to upload them. Not very computer savy lol

This might help. viewtopic.php?f=37&t=617

You can also load them to photobucket and link them to the forum reply box.

My phone won't let me upload anything. But I'll be around a real computer tomorrow so hopefully I'll be able to upload them tomorrow

We can wait

This is the circle k on the M91/30

Oval y mark on the M44

К- Point of aim proof . У- Final black powder proof .

The point of aim proof means that the sights are properly adjusted and it hits where you aim it. Black powder proof means that rifle was tested with black powder and passed the test . I can be wrong but this is what I was able to find on the subject .

Drat! I was hoping it meant it was kosher and I could look for a rifle that comes with chopped liver.

There's not a single place in this whole town where a guy can get a good sandwich like back home.

But the oriental food is excellent, so I guess there's the trade.

Double post. Sometimes I hate TapaTalk.
