Nagant Revolver

[jason conley]

I own one, worst double action ever. Some of my friends could not even pull the trigger with one finger. Pretty accurate when shot right. ammo is almost as expensive as the gun but I enjoy shooting them.

It may be that there's variation from sample to sample. Mine isn't any worse than my Keltec P3AT and is considerably better than a friend's Grendel P11 (a sort of double-stack predecessor to the P3AT).

I find that unmodified it shoots .32 H&R Magnum fine which provides an alternative to the specialty Nagant ammo. Purists cringe at that since the chamber is a bit large for that cartridge and cartridges will expand, stick and often split partially. However folk have been doing that a lot and I've never heard of anyone having a safety issue with it. Some have also shot .32 S&W out of it but I have no experience with that.

Bringing this thread back to life. Missed my chance on a Nagant, was wondering if anyone knows anywhere in Indiana they are available?

Would like to pick my own-

No further than Indy-closer to Ft. Wayne would be grand!

It's nowhere near Ft. Wayne, but Bradis Guns in Camby (far SW corner of Indy) generally has a number of them in-stock.

I'd call KS&E on Indy's east side.... last several times I've been in there they had several at $99.

Well it looks like a drive if I want it! Hopefully I can get some closer places but thanks for the info!
