I have in my accumulatiion of guns an old M44 Mosin that was a Korean War bringback, complete with Chinese characters painted on the stock. It belonged to a Korean War vet on my block and I paid a whopping $20.00 for it back in the 60s.

My question is: Would it be worth more than the average M44s available today or is it just "lost in the herd" so to speak?

Forgot to mention that it is a Russian made gun, not Chinese. And, of course, nothing matches on it.
