They started as a 91/30 and about 1959 they were cut down to carbine length and put into a M44 stock. They retained the old rear sight and had the ranges above 1000 ground off.

It happens as one gets older, if I didn't put up a post it note as a reminder I might leave the house without trousers on in the morning.
