This will probably be an easy one for you guys. What is this, what caliber and what is it worth?   The bayonet is fully functional. The markings on the receiver are "1953", "AX145" and a stamping that looks like a couple of wheat sheeves or wings around 3 vertical marks. Also an encircled "V" stamp. No visible serial number. Thanks in advance for the responses. ____________________________________ There are those who would misteach us that to stick in a rut is consistency - and a virtue, and that to climb out of the rut is inconsistency - and a vice. - Mark Twain | Chinese Proverb: When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others. ___________________________________ | ||

Moisin Nagant, M44 (I think that is the model number), 7.62x54R (about the equivilant of a 30-06). This is a very popular surplus rifle, they sell for around $100, give or take, in like new condition. | |||

These were made in a lot of countries. Wheat sheaves? I would guess Hungarian. I ordered what was supposedly a hungarian one and got one wih the receiver marked 11 in a circle, which is Polish. Last year of manufacture was 1954, so this is a late edition.
