Heavy trigger pull.
by: Anonymous

Nagant's main spring was intentionaly made
powerfull because its one of main mission was
to pull back the cylinder with fired case from
the back cone of barrel around which tne front
of case mouth been sticked. This is especially
useful on rather corroded barrels and a step on
top front of trigger as pushing against to the
front face of rear ring of cylinder carrying the
stop notches, carries out this task with some
five times multipied power of main spring.

Nagant
by: Dangerous Dan

I've five of them. None were over $89 and all were bought from SOG or AIM up in Ohio during the 12 years or so I had my '03 license. We use the .32 S&W Long ammo in them and have experienced few problems extracting the cases. The grandkids enjoy shooting them (supervised, of course) as they feel they're shooting a "real" firearm but without much kick. Of course, cocking them can be a challenge for small hands.

I enjoyed your review of the Nagant '95.

I think you are right while not a first choice. It is a former military gun,and as such is well made. Also more important it is RELIABLE it will go bang each,and every time 99.9% of the time in all extreme conditions. Two world wars a revolution,and numerous proxy wars have proven this. While not my first choice to carry I would not feel underarmed taking it anywhere needed if it was all that was on hand. In short more bang for the buck no pun intended.

Good and on the money
by: Don

Hey! You nailed it. Nagants cost so little that you can stick one away for that "just in-case day". They are small enough and light enough to make great trail guns. Maybe they are underpowered but they are enough gun for most things that might pop up. Now I wouldn't choose it for a duty gun or first line defense. But one would be nice to have along anyway. Two legged varmints would be more likely to understand the threat than a wolf. But I always found two legged varmints to be a bigger threat than anything I've run into while in the bush.

Eric Holder's denial before congress, about the Fast And Furious gun running scandal, is a national disgrace.

The Political Cesspool Is Full (and overflowing) in 2012. The presidential race is shaping up to be a nasty ..... and stupid one.

Not only a valuable product for those figuring out concealed carry.
