And I see that you got one of the historically significant receivers with the "machined by beavers with their teeth" marks on it! You'll enjoy this rifle, and, I believe, be pleasantly surprised at how accurate it is. Good Shooting and God Bless!! Darrell "Nicht schlecht, Herr Specht"

You rifle is a quite nice example and the guys are right when they point out the proof of history those production marks record. Just imagine the production lines in action as workers urgently make these weapons for their men and women in uniform going toe to toe with the Nazi machine!

Unless someone has already compensated the sights for it. Curt

And thus, the rifle was always sighted in with the bayonet attached. And once a rifle is sighted in, doing anything with the muzzle end of the barrel can and will throw off the sighting. It has also been long known that shooting the M-44 carbines with the bayonet folded results in only so-so accuracy. Unfolding the bayonet and letting it stick out proud will make them shoot like they were intended to shoot. On mine, it makes about six inches of windage compensation at 100 yards to shoot it with the bayonet folded. Curt
