One of the standout features of the M1944 is its permanently affixed, side-folding cruciform-spike bayonet, which adds a layer of versatility for close-quarters engagements. The bayonet can be folded neatly into a groove inlet on the right side of the stock, ensuring that it doesn’t interfere with handling when not in use. The carbine is equipped with a hooded front post sight and an adjustable U-notch rear sight, allowing for precise aiming in various conditions. Its smooth one-piece wood stock not only provides comfort during extended use but also reflects the practical design ethos of Soviet military firearms. Produced primarily at the Izhevsk arsenal and, for a brief period, at Tula, the M1944 carbine was manufactured in substantial numbers, serving not only Soviet forces but also their satellite nations during the Cold War. Post-war, many of these rifles underwent counterboring, a common practice to extend the life of military firearms. The M1944 remains a respected piece of military history, exemplifying the adaptability and efficiency of Soviet arms design.
