MOSIN NAGANT M44 W BAYONET

The Mosin-Nagant M44’s rugged steel receiver is finished in a deep blued military coating, built to withstand the rigors of harsh wartime conditions. Its defining feature—a permanently attached, side-folding cruciform bayonet—locks securely alongside the stock when stowed and swings forward for instant readiness, embodying Soviet doctrine for close-quarters combat. The solid hardwood stock offers a robust, utilitarian grip, while the bolt-action system delivers legendary reliability under mud, snow, and grit.

Complementing its compact profile are battle-proven iron sights: a hooded front post and an adjustable rear ramp calibrated to 1,000 meters. Chambered in the powerful 7.62×54mmR cartridge, the M44 combines carbine maneuverability with full rifle stopping power. With its shortened barrel, balanced weight, and integrated bayonet, this Cold War classic was engineered for durability, simplicity, and effectiveness in urban and field engagements alike.
