Didn't the Finns make a copy of the M44 carbine? (Or refurbish the captured Russian carbines). The triangle on the barrel reminds me of a Finn marking...

Edit: The Finns made their rifles/carbine based on the Russian 1891 Mosin Nagant 7.62 design. SAOTW says thet were higher quality than the Russian weapons. Which probably accounts for the relatively high cost of $200 back when Eric was in law school...
