Guns Listing ID: 498530
The Nagant M1895 is a seven-shot, gas-seal revolver designed by Belgian industrialist Léon Nagant for the Russian Empire. It was adopted as the standard issue sidearm for the Imperial Russian Army and police officers, replacing earlier Smith & Wesson models. The revolver was chambered for a proprietary cartridge, 7.62×38mmR, and features a unique gas-seal system. When the gun is cocked, the cylinder moves forward to close the gap between the cylinder and the barrel, providing a boost to the muzzle velocity of the bullet and allowing the weapon to be suppressed.
Production began in Liège, Belgium, but Russia purchased the manufacturing rights in 1898 and moved production to the Tula Arsenal in Russia. The revolver was produced in two versions: a double-action version for officers and a cheaper single-action version for the lower ranks (This is a DA/SA). After the Russian Revolution, only the double-action version was made. The Nagant revolvers were used by the NKVD and Red Army units until the end of World War II, with a total of 2,000,000 produced. The Nagant M1895 has a heavy trigger pull (about 12 lbs for single and 20 lbs for double).
The Nagant M1895 has a mechanism that, as the hammer is cocked, first turns the cylinder and then moves it forward, closing the gap between the cylinder and the barrel. The cartridge plays an important part in sealing the gun to prevent the escape of propellant gases. The revolver‚‚s design inspired other firearms, such as the Pieper M1893 carbine and the Steyr 1893 revolver.
The revolver remained in service well into the 20th century and saw use in various conflicts, including the Boxer Rebellion, Russo-Japanese War, World War I, Russian Revolution of 1917, Russian Civil War, Finnish Civil War, Estonian War of Independence, Polish-Soviet War, Spanish Civil War, Winter War, World War II, Chinese Civil War, Hukbalahap Rebellion, Korean War, Vietnam War, and the Tuareg rebellion (1990–1995).
Aftermarket cylinders for .32-caliber can be installed, allowing the Nagant to safely fire .32 H&R Magnum or .32 ACP. Shooting any ammunition other than the 7.62×38mmR cartridge with the original cylinder can cause bodily injury from bullet shrapnel or escaping gas, and the excessive pressures produced by some .32 ammunition could also cause catastrophic failure of the cylinder or frame
