I'm asking the collective mind again...
First off, has anyone seen a DDR 2 marking on a 91/30? It is the small stamp, the same size as the DDR mark on a Nagant pistol. I've included a fews pics of this rifle. Its a decent updated dragoon all parts match, no bayo. Wood is correct.
Second questions is of anyone has seen a Polish M44 thats been refurbed by the Romanain's? I found one recently that has all matching numbers on the bolt, barrel, and magazine with an unmarked Romanian bolt. Wood looked Polish with worn shellac, 1952 dated.
Pics are posted. After taking the wood off and a closer inspection this carbine definately came from Albania. It is a mash up of Hungarian, Romanian and Polish parts with a few Russian thrown in too. A Tula band spring and an Izhevsh band are the only Russian parts I saw. The bolt has a very faint EP mark (I can't even read it) and you can see where the previous stamped number was ground off (very faint also). Hungarian bolthead and extractor, Romanian handle and cocking knob, plum ejector, tang is not dated, has an 'A' on it. Magazine is not stamped, but blueing matches. Over all a very nice piece.
Thanks for the info!
