They are what they are, cheap, cheap to shoot, reliable, and in my opinion fun to shoot. I like the M44 better than a 91/30 because it blows a big ass fireball when you shoot it. Do I like shooting it better than my M1 or my
EBR's? No, but i still enjoy shooting it. Guns are like every other hobby there is somthing out there for everyone.
