M44 Carbine-Need Info

Does anyone know of a website where I could find downloadable manuals, or lots of info? I just got a Hungarian, and want to know how to take the bolt apart all the way.
 
This is my answer from a previous thread (search for "M44"):

It's pretty easy.

1. unload rifle and so forth
2. remove bolt.
3. rotate the cocking piece counter clockwise (as viewed from the rear)
4. the bolt head and guide deal should now come forward and off
5. use the forked part of the guide deal to unscrew the firing pin from the cocking piece. It's under spring tension, so be careful not to let them squirt different directions.

To reassemble:

1. screw firing pin into cocking piece, through the bolt body, until the pin is about flush with the rear of the cocking piece.
2. slide the bolt head over the forward part of the guide deal, then rotate the bolt head 90 degrees (only one way to do this, so relax)
3. with the cocking piece forward, slide the guide deal over the firing pin in front while putting the forked part over the "T" protrusion on the cocking piece. When the guide deal goes into place, the notch on the bolt head should go into a recess on the forward edge of the bolt body. You may have to rotate the bolt head a little for things to go into place, but no big deal.
4. will everything in place, rotate and retract the cocking piece into its rearward position.

Not too bad.

Tuco runs a great site, lots of info and discussion boards. There are links to other Nagant sites as well.

Just shot mine this weekend. What a fun little gun! For $65 especially. I can't say what the real accuracy potential is because we were shooting milk jugs, but it seemed pretty darn good. Plus the muzzle blast and kick were a lot milder than I was led to believe.

Bolt throw seemed really tough after shooting until I switched from steel cased ammo to brass. Then it got a lot smoother. Maybe the steel stretches more and makes extraction difficult? I don't know, but I'm using brass from now on.

Thank you guys for talking me into buying a Noisy Magnet. :D
Fun little blaster.
