Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Thanks for showing all those nice looking M44's. I'll pull up this post and show it to my wife when I come home with my second, third, fourth ....... Mosin:-)

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

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

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!
