[QUOTE="ronny, post: 2201579, member: 8853"] I've never been convinced that counterboring was needed all that much, on either M38's or 91/30's (91's). I had 2 M38's as recently as about 3 years ago, both of which had been counterbored. However, the rifles themselves showed no indication of that kind of wear. You're certainly right in that there are a lot more M44's in really good condition. A lot of that is because the war was nearly over when they went into production and use. I've seen them apparently unissued with '46 and '47 dates on them. I just don't like the bayonets. [/QUOTE]
