I was finishing up cleaning my M-44 last night from my corrosive ammo snafu, when I noticed just how beautiful this rifle is. I really picked a good one - the wood is nearly perfect. It must have been the CLP bath, because as I wiped the gun down and used the same rag to wipe down the stock, the finish just popped out and I realized I have a really, really nice looking rifle - almost a museum piece...Hopefully the weather will cooperate this weekend, as I need to snap some pics....
