Another Mosin-Nagant

What makes the M44 seem to have more recoil is the tremendous muzzle blast.

Who confuses one with the other?

Duct tape a 5 pound weight to the barrel.

A good slip on pad should do the job.

The M44's are becoming harder to find, and increasing in price. There have been attempts at muzzle brakes, you can look on surplusrifle's sporterizing section and see some of the successful ones. The best way to tone them down is through reloading. Most folks find their M44's prefer the heavier ammo.

I put one of these on my M44;

For $15 buck, it made a world of difference. Lengthened the stock as well. No mods!

And, referring to the reloading issue... I just bought another 100 rds of Wolf Gold from Graf and Son for $17 a box---reloadable brass cases, box primed. All things considered, for the amount of reloading I can get out of those cases, it's a steal.

Like they wished they had a recoil pad.

Just bought two Mosin Nagant 91/30's (Hex Barrel), both in excellent condition, one made in 1930, one in 1935, 440 rounds of ammo and 1 quart of Hoppe's 9 for $325. Took them to the outdoor range yesterday but got rained out
