I wish they would make models of these that used the shell systems, especially being able to use stripper clips would be good fun, and the abilities to load pellets with those is an added bonus

[@DarknessProphet]

I love larger bolt-action rifles so much more than for instance semi-autos when it comes to recreational target shooting. Just so much fun.

[@mickd6942]

Got mine last friday and its a joy to shoot , theres something very relaxing about shooting an old school bolt action style BB gun , mine's the airforce one version but identical and its quickly becoming a favourite of my collection .

[@stevel105]

I do not understand why they make these replicas so Underpowered. and great Review. thanks

[@DROFHAPPINESS]

Hello Andy & Rebecca: I have all 3 of the Nagants offered by Gletcher (M1891, M1895 BB, & this one, the M1944). I just want to add some points, if I may. Like most Gletcher boxes, there is a schematic of the pistol on the inside cover of the box. The leather 'buckles' are often called 'dog collars'. The mag for the M1891 is interchangeable with the mag of this rifle. When you put the safety on, it charges the gun even w/o pulling the bolt itself all the way back. The bolt may be removed & easily disassembled. But pay a attention to reassembly as it can be a bit finicky. There is a nice metal strap on the butt end of the rifle. WARNING TO OTHERS: The sound of that bolt action is ADDICTIVE. I have plans in the near future of doing a video with all 3 guns in B&W as a mini-reinactment by myself. BTW, into my downloaded collection goes this one, my friend.

Anything based on historical weapons is great in my book. I've been looking at this for a while now but i am waiting to see if the Lee Enfield bb rifle comes out. Great review.

[@simonnoble7589]

i collect rifles , and this rifle is favorite ... very well made . AND packs a punch ..... Cheers Simon

You can easily remove the bayonet just by unscrewing it. This is what I did - not because it was particularly dangerous, but because it was scratching the gun's stock when folded.

[@uncletom1971]

That bolt action is lovely.

[@coffee637]

Great video, great replica. I use to buy and restore 44s, 38s. and 91s back when you could get them cheap. I love the style, the history.

Nice boat...! 😉

[@geetee7154]

Great review Andy, whilst it's not something i would buy, it does look pretty damn cool,albeit a bit pricey for BB Gun.

[@_MrBread]

For the price, I would’ve expected it to have geniune woods, and a cartridge ejecting feature like on the Underlever. I don’t know if the reason why it’s not wood is to keep the weight down, or keep the price affordable, if it’s the price, daisy makes guns like the red ryder, model 25, model 105 with real wood but still keep the price low, but if it’s the weight, again like what andy said it’s targeted to specific people, i’m sure that extra heft of feel would have been appreciated.

[@drownindesigner]

You can do that with Double Bell Kar98k although it isn’t a Mosin unfortunately.

[@alexandersupertramp7395]

I'd also put that new Sig M17 pistol up for a test, interesting mag design, and the Glock 17 dual ammo pistol when it's released very soon😀⚔️

[@HANDGOTTES01]

totally agree. its a shame that there isnt a real wood version out. whats negativ for me is the look in general. it looks to new for such a "old weapon". everything else is rly nice and i love it.

[@gobstoppa1633]

who care,s if its an inch out on accuracy, with a gorgeous smooth tool like that in ya hands, its dreamtime for real. super fun gun. cheers,MINT.

[@McMonkeyful]

The action on that bolt seems much smoother than most Mosins I've seen on KZbin, which generally seem to require a firm hand & on occasions a little extra encouragement to go into battery! A nice looking novelty gun but for the price, I think I'd rather buy something more practical.

[@forcemultiflier1746]

Bugger the History! bring back the Beautiful Girl !!

[@chrisward53]

Great Review, that gun looks awesome . Thank you 👍

[@yorkshiresportsshooting1349]

Damn, they missed a golden oppurtunity to have it eject shells that you load the BB's or pellets into like the replica revolvers you can get.

[@buffalosoldiers4688]

Gets tiresome picking up shells constantly. Damn things get lost. Pain in the butt finding them.

[@CallumEder]

@@buffalosoldiers4688 Have to disagree buddy, I have the Umarex cowboy rifle with ejecting shells and its so worth the extra time picking them up and loading them if your in the market for realism (which people buying a low powered but authentic Mosin Nagant will be) ((myself included))

[@sansde1ty]

I’d agree with a gun like this, it’s all about replication of the action. For a rifle it’s very underpowered, so actual target shooting isn’t a primary concern.

[@sumvs5992]

Would be nice if there was an inclusion of a clip, and the ability to use it in the rifle too

[@fernandoharo3738]

If you want a rifle like that I would suggest getting a G&G Kar98K shell ejecting gas rifle. It's pretty realistic in operation, full metal and real wood build too.

[@alexandersupertramp7395]

Great review Andy, This rifle isn't for me but for the enthusiast of this type of gun then it's great, look forward to your next review😀👍

[@Crazy85quirrel]

This is a great rifle but I hate the stock. The printed wood grain scratched off and underneath it is black plastic. Got mine for Christmas and that was a huge disappointment.

[@garychap8384]

Thank goodness the bayonet is removable.... I'd hate to run foul of the police's aversion to long pointy-ended objects. : / ... BB's, on the other hand, are clearly the polar opposite of 'pointy' ... and should thus present no problems ; D

[@MrCoursair77]

What is the difference between the gletcher and the wingun Mosin Nagant M1944 CO2 BB Rifle?

[@maleekbeats]

Live this one. Mine shoots a bit to the left

[@paulynotshore7006]

Does the bolt dismantle?

[@vxngeanxe]

is there a way to mount scope

[@Barbarapape]

A great looking replica, but as said for the price the stock should have been a real wood one, and windage adjustment on the rear sight. Would this stop me buying one, at this price yes, plastic stocks have no place on a replica. Sometimes you don't get what you pay for. Lets hope that the Le Enfield ones have wood stocks.

[@MrJohnkersey]

Hi Andy, has a replica of the Lee Enfield 303 been produced, brilliant reviews keep them coming many thanks for the entertainment. john

[@Desperado3248]

Pretty anemic fps from a Carbine. Should be capable of 550 fps or better to be considered adequate

[@Bushcraft-xz6xd]

Far to much money for a plastic wall hanger. With that whopping 2 ftlbs of 'power' and not even able to fire pellets it really is only suited to a niche market. It's a shame, make them pellet guns with decent wood furniture and pushing double digit power and they would sell in the thousands!

Brilliant gun but no getter than a pee shooter.

[@JoePatABC]

I love replica guns but simply have never seen the point of a replica BB gun. I know, I know, the greatest majority of the replicas out there are BB guns. No matter, it's senseless to me and when you begin talking about a 300+ pound plastic BB gun, I'm sorry, you've completely lost me. Put a wooden stock on it and rifled barrel that takes pellets, and I'm all in feeling the cost would be justified. But as it stands... no thanks.

[@tonywoods4301]

Rather buy a Diana Mauser K98... replica for that money.

[@devonhc7770]

replicas are so awesome but the costs shows that extra work making the bb version so im just thinking about the new glock bb guns

[@tonywoods4301]

Devon have a look at the Diana Mauser K 98 replica air rifle, shoots pellets only, under leaver action, looks and shoots superb.

[@Orkneyshooter]

In the UK you can't purchase or create a realistic imitation M1944 that does not shoot without a valid defence under the VCRA such as proven membership of a reenactment group, or UKARA registration for airsofts. No such restriction applies to steel BB firing replicas. Also, realistically, if they made a non firing M1944 replica of this quality, how much less than the BB version do you think it would cost. Lastly, a rifled version would need a different feed mechanism which would further detract from realism and the rifled barrel would provide so little more accuracy that it would make no difference. If you want a highly accurate bolt action rifle there are lots of PCPs out there. Alternatively, you can get the real thing in deactivated form for around £200-300, but due to the latest EU wide restrictions it won't even cock.
