which model of 44 US do you have ? 44US(a) uses bolt #R103, models 44US(b),(c),(d) uses #R427, I am not sure of the differences but I can only see the cross reference on the bolts is different.

I bought a model 42c bolt that worked in a 44c.
Just an fyi.

Mine are just the plain 44US's, no letter designation, not drilled and tapped. From what it looks like the 44US is unique. HHEELLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPP !!!!!!!!

The 44US (US PROPERTY ) was made between 1943 to 1945 and was a US military training rifle. It's "father" was model 44B. They both use bolt body R423 , the only difference being a dust cover for the ejection port on the 44B, none on the 44US. They had forged extractors.

This is where it might get confusing, models 44US, 44US(a), 44US(b), 44US(c), 44US(d), 42M(a), 42M(b) and 42M(c) all used the R423 bolt body with only difference being a change in extractors from forged to spring steel and the addition of the dust cover. Any of these bolts will function in the 44US. If you want it original you will have to find a bolt with no dust cover and forged extractors, if not then any of these bolts will work.

Other models such as 42B, 42C, 42M or 42TR will not work as they utilize bolt body R194. Any other 42 or 44 models would be incompatable also. Hope this helps.

took a look at my bolt, must be a 42m (c).

I think a "Hawthorne Warrior Model M825" bolt will work.
