quality is the same as Tula, in fact I have never heard of " the crappy factory" in Russia, I figured with them being all pinkos, the the work was crap they would shoot the whole crew, and then bring in more people to train.
As long as the barrel is good, then you really can't do wrong, the M-44 is a hoot to shoot, I have several in my safe, no better way to announce your arrival at the range.
