Oh Just to add - I shot my m44 today - about 50 rnds through it most I have ever shot in one range session through it - I love this gun. Accurate, I watched the bullet split the grass on the way down the range and it kicks like a mule. Great stuff.

The kicker is...that's a steel case, or what's left of one. If the commies would have made proper brass cases you'd probably be back in business.

True very true... I have some brass case but not very much.

it is near fubared I think,

doubtful that it is coming out tonight

**Garufa** · 06-13-2009, 07:39 PM

No sleep tonight. That conundrum is going to haunt your dreams.

**Mike.357** · 06-13-2009, 07:46 PM

it really is hard to believe that a casing as thin and in as poor shape as this was can be this stuck in the chamber. I can't even imagine what it holding it in place.

**Mike.357** · 06-13-2009, 11:16 PM

Okay, I give up.

Broken shell extractor ordered.

Dang shipping doubles the cost.

I wondered whose rifle that was. I guess i was distracted with my misfortunes but I did see it sitting in an open rifle case. It is a very handsome rifle!

What year was it made and which armory did it come from?

Now that you've ordered that broken shell extractor that case will probably just fall out

Use the 2x4 on it. I know you had one with you at the range!
