Mosin Nagant M44 in hunting configuration
Published: June 18th, 2009
Brian, who blogs at SKS’s and More, emailed me photos of his Mosin-Nagant M44 which has been configured for short range ( 75 yards ) hog and deer hunting. The scope mount attaches to where the front sight would have been.

I love that laminated stock.
If you are into SKS and other comblock firearms I recommend checking out Brian’s SKS’s and More blog.
I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

I'm gonna go get a red dot for my 1945 m44 today. Have a LER scout scope on it now but I don't really need the zoom as I like to shoot in the 100-150 yd. range. Was gonna do the richards microfit stock and barrel cut. Don't know If id like losing my bayonet though, as it stands this thing is my own personal shootin, stabbin war club. P.S. It's a tack driver too, even more so with the original irons on it. Aim sports scope doesn't hold zero well.
And here it is

it's a Barska Ac10632
$39.99 at Big 5, I figured either way i'll probably break it so why buy the $150 one.
Pretty solid though, 7 different brightness adjustments 4 reticles and came with a spare batt.
I'll chime back in with accuracy once I get some range time
