I was just given a Mossberg Model 44US(b) rifle by my father. All he knows is that his father had owned it. I'm having quite a time trying to find information about it, mainly when it was made. No serial number seems to be on it. The trigger handle says "Reg. in Canada 1938 O.F. Mossberg" and "USA PATDES. 11072(0?)". It has a Mossberg Microclick S-100 rear sight, and the front sight is a fixed post with '.47' on it. The only other marking I can find is on the barrel, left hand side, right next to the stock, what looks like a cross between an 'N' and a 'T'. All the parts are original, and pristene except the bluing is pretty much gone. If anyone has any information on when this might have been made, or any other info about it, I'd greatly appreciate it. Can't wait to take it out to the range!
