For those who may be interested, SOG is now selling M44s for $39:

I've only shot one of these, but I don't think there's much debate about the fact that they're a rock-solid platform, with okay accuracy at 100-yards, affordable ammo, and .30-06 power. Safety sucks, though.
Add in shipping and transfer fee and it's still well under $100. Very nice deal, in my opinion.
I've never ordered from SOG before, and I won't be ordering now (April 15 was VERY painful for me). But this does look like a great price.
