The Mosin-Nagant (Russian: Винтовка Мосина) is a bolt-action, magazine fed, military rifle that was used by the armed forces of Imperial Russia and later the Soviet Union and various Eastern bloc nations. Also known as the Three-Line Rifle (Russian: Трёхлинейная винтовка), it was the first to use the 7.62x54mmR cartridge. As a front-line rifle, the Mosin-Nagant served in various forms from 1891 until the 1960s in many Eastern European nations, when the sniper rifle variant was replaced by the SVD (Russian: Снайперская винтовка Драгунова — "Snajperskaja Vintovka Dragunova"). The Mosin-Nagant is still used in many conflicts due to its ruggedness and the vast number produced during World War II.
Model 1944 Carbine — this carbine was introduced into service in late 1943 and remained in production until 1948. Its specifications are very similar to the M1938, with the major exception of having a permanently affixed, folding quadrangular-bladed bayonet. These were in use not only by the USSR, but also its various satellite nations.
