Enjoy.

Great collection Ron
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

Re: Blackjack... In M44
Gorgeous collection!
Let me make a short, open, blanket comment. There are no good guns. There are no bad guns. Any gun in the hands of a bad man is a bad thing. Any gun in the hands of a descent person is no threat to anyone--- except bad people. -- Charleton Heston
Guns are not good, they are not evil. Save those descriptions for the people holding the firearm. -- Unknown
1943 Izhevsk
1937 Izhevsk
1935/48/50 Tula (hex)
1939 Tula (laminate stock)
And many other firearms

That's a pretty cool pic. It would make a good wallpaper.
You see in this world there are two kinds of people my friend, those with loaded guns... and those who dig. You dig.

Re: Blackjack... In M44
One for each finger and toe and one extra in case you break a finger or toe.

Re: Blackjack... In M44
I told you years back to get some M38's while they were cheap, I told the entire forum, but did anyone listen...noooooooooo.

Re: Blackjack... In M44
I am not a carbine man but that is quite nice! Great photography for sure! I think I maybe have ten or so of different varieties and years. Not many M38's at all as most I find are shot to hell and counter bored to death. I don't mind a counter bore on an M91 because the muzzle velocity still stays up there with that long barrel but when you get a counter bored carbine length rifle it really suffers over 100 yards with bullet drop. You end up with trajectory versus bullet drop! Now I do like 91/59's and had quite a few of them over the years. I just like the always great triggers in them babies! Thanks for Sharing that picture!

Re: Blackjack... In M44
I shot my m44 quite a bit this weekend and it was great. I am looking at your pic and thinking a few more would be nice myself. Nice picture.
