Of the six or so movies, I picked three that I liked. 1) Fortress of War: Fortress of War (2010) - IMDb. Based on the Nazi invasion of the Russia and the defense of the Brest Fortress.

I went to a gun show this morning held by a local gun, shooting, second amendment organization I am a member of. Not one Mosin Nagant there.

A shortened version of the Winchester Model 1892 saddle ring carbine known affectionately as the "Mare's Leg" is the main firearm used by Josh Randall (Steve McQueen) throughout the duration of the show, chambered in .44-40 (despite the large .45-70 rounds on his belt).
