PTR91 Announces the PTR 44
It has been 65 years since the MP 44 strumgewher was introduced and one has not been made since the end of World War II. Collectors and re-enactors can now have a piece of history that has not been available to them till now.
PTR 91 Inc is proud to announce—for the first time in the US—the PTR 44. The PTR 44 is a true-to-original reproduction of the German MP 44 rifle, in a semi-automatic-only version. The PTR 44 is manufactured for for PTR 91 Inc, by Sport Systeme Dittrich in Germany. Using original German WWII drawings and manufacturing techniques, they have produced a rifle that looks, feels, and handles just like the original!
We are importing a limited number of these rifles, and—with the current political climate—we do not know how long we will be able to continue importing them. So, place your orders now, before they are gone!
Dealers can order the PTR44 directly from PTR91.
