    Nagon 7.62





    Not long ago my FFL called and said he had a box of Russian revolvers and would I like one. All I had to do was stop by and fill out the paperwork and give him $100. Why not?

    Nice one mj. Thought mine was nice, wow...Paid about the same for mine 10 years ago. Don't have a box of ammo through it yet. Accurate shooter single action, but man what a bear double action. Watch that rusky ammo its corrosive.


    Nice pic; regards, dennis

      I'll never shoot it. It is just dressing for the Fuji shots.

        The printing on the box says Revolver Cartridges Calibre 7.62.

        Your Nagant revolver is one of the very few if not the only one that can mount a supressor.

        Quite pleasant to shoot and reasonably accurate too.

            your Nagant has to be in the best shape that I've ever seen & your old Tokarev rifle is much prettier than ours by far. Ours gets 2" to 4" groups with good Norma ammo, 3 to 5 shot groups, 100 yards, prone, from a bag............ with dern good handloads, I was able to shrink the groups to 1 1/2" at 100yds.......
            be safe, enjoy life, journey well

              I still haven't shot mine so I will take everyone's word about it. Been on the road or beach as it were.

                    A nice dog and lady I met on the beach at sunset in Costa Rica last July. I wanted to photograph the dog but she wanted to wait till the next morning. Well worth the wait.



                    Next day.
