The Baikals are well made guns and Ishvesk has been making weapons for many years, The famous Mosin Nagant was made at Ishvesk and The Tula arsenals for many years and saw service in WW2 .

I have two M44 carbines and have had several other variants of the Mosin Nagant rifle and they are tough as an anvil.

The steels used by Ishvesk are some of the best in the world and Russians have a very utilitarian approach to building guns and build them tough.
