Russian Nagant revolver - the real deal

Here are a few videos of suppressed Nagants.

Shows very effective suppression. Can still hear the echoing of the muzzle report even though it is greatly reduced.

Has some detail on the action and attaching the silencer. This is one the owner has let me shoot. The video does not do justice to how well it lowers noise.

This can is huge.

Can find much more by searching for silencer and nagant on Youtube.
 
Hello webleymkv,,,

I don't personally think Nagants are ugly, but then I rather like the archaic look of Victorian European military revolvers anyway.

I'm with you there my friend,,,
I would love to have a Russian Nagant, a British Webley, and a French 1892 Lebel all cased up for display.

They make me think of steam locomotives.

We used to have a resident expert on the Nagants, Ken from Wild West Alaska. The Nagant is the gun he collects most. You can see some of his collection hanging on his office wall in the show. He has a few of the rare versions. He was disappeared from the forum a while ago, so his input is no longer available. You can search "wildalaska nagant" on this forum and dig up the old posts.

Like many others I still have his e-mail and occasionally correspond with him about the pistols.

I shot one in a Cowboy Action match earlier this year - if I could find another one locally or face to face for a hundred bucks or so, I'd buy another one.
