I recently had a chance to handle a Norwegian Nagant M1893. It seems to have the same trigger mechanism as the M95, but without the gas seal mechanism. Oddly, the one I looked at cannot be cocked to single action without partially pulling the trigger to get the hammer moving. I'm unsure if it's supposed to be that way, or if it's the result of wear and tear.
do you have pictures of your nagant m1893? is that the model with the long cylinders? I would like to know more because I have an antique belgian revolver chambered for 7.62x38r that I know very littler about and very little information exists.
Gotta love randos who stumble upon minute's of Mae, go "blllarggh!" in the comments, and then wander off like a confused mental patient who lost their handler. Always hilarious too when they presume to tell Othias he's wrong about something they "heard about one time" when there's a 2h video on said gun they haven't seen.
Fascinating! I do like them both and have an 1895 Nagant but I do believe I like the Belgian one a little more. Heck they're both cool as are the Swiss Nagant revolvers too!
My question is: what possessed the Russians to supplant the quickly reloaded S&W Model 3 with the 1895 Nagant??? I have the Nagant and cannot remove casings and reload in less than a couple minutes in a non-combat situation.
I can answer. The officers wanted a lighter weapon for peacetime. And in war, an officer fights with a map and a pencil, as experience has shown, this turned out to be not far from the truth .. That is why they made him 7 rounds, because the officer has a whole squad of 10 soldiers with rifles at his disposal. But here we can single out such a Russian problem as underestimating the importance of non-commissioned officers (sergeants, corporals and other lower ranks). The main problem of the Russian Army in the First World War was the small amount of heavy howitzer artillery. And this was more important. In fact, all the technical problems of the army were resolved by 1917, but the liberals and businessmen betrayed the Tsar and turned out to be worse than him.
I have a technical question for you. This has nothing to do with guns. It's just things I notice... Do you read a script? Or is this from memory? Your eyes do not wander like a news reporter when they are reading from their teleprompter. This leads me to believe that you are speaking from memory. If that is the case, I am very impressed with how long you can talk without an edit or a screen change. That is the sign of a dedicated researcher.
Imagine going to war with these pistols must have been an adventure. You’re probably looking at your sword if you’re an officer and relying on your rifle armed men to keep you alive. If it all goes to crap and you find yourself with five spear armed tribals coming at you your sword becomes the back up and your pulling that trigger like crazy.
I remember when 1895's were 50 bucks a pop... I always said that I would get a couple, one to mod, one to put up in my case. Man did I sleep on that, they are like $500 now!!!1! ;(
Looks like the Russian has at least as many moving parts, if not a few more. They were both designed by the same guy, so I’m not sure why you would assume it is simpler and more reliable just because the Russians adopted it. Especially when they added a gas seal system.
I wonder if there is a market for a gas sealed .357 or .44 Mag revolver with a threaded barrel? Imagine hog hunting with a suppressed .44 Magnum revolver. It just sounds ridiculous and yet interesting. It just might be too silly to be a successful product.
The problem is that you can’t really do it right with normal cartridges. If you look at 7.62 Nagant, the case actually extends past the front of the bullet so the brass can bridge the cylinder gap.
Aside from the high quality firearms history and technical knowledge, I really appreciate that you're using a cocktail stick as a pointer.
That, my friend, is the patented plastic pokey. 😛
Thank you for clarifying! That comment section was driving me nuts
Nagant Revolvers have so much character! Works of art !
This is what happens when half the class gives the wrong answer to something we covered last semester
It's becoming uncanny how often you do videos on guns that I have just picked up. W
Seems like there is still a bit of clairvoyant magic in your crystal ball after all
@@TenaciousTrilobite It's only bad with legal decisions
As patron and fan of c&rsenal I really like this format of video.
yep it was a great idea
Could we perhaps see an analysis of the Nagant M1910, with a swing out cylinder?
What else? Episode featuring living unicorn?
@@jon_watson3740 that would be pretty cool too
That’s a real thing that really happened?
@@john-paulsilke893 yeah man look it up, it was just never adopted
@@jon_watson3740 Nah, I want strangest chimera that Crispr can kick out.
I love the Clips! Got my T-Shirts today! Thanks for shipping to germany before christmas!
Love these little clips!

That is cool that you could handle and your story was very interesting.

Two beautiful Nagant revolvers👌
Really interesting to see comparison of the m1887vsm1895!
RUclipsrs not paying attention? What a shocker?! 😮😛
wait, where am i...?!?!

DiD yOU KnOW tHE 1895 NAgAnt, cAn bE SuPpreSSed?!
It's really a shame that Nagant's name is most prominently attached to the Mosin-Nagant.
Better than for shooting your comrade in the back of the head
Must say, I really like the 1878 Nagant.
I do love these quick reviews
Thanks
Simultaneously one of the coolest and crappiest revolvers of all time.
The Alpha and the Omega.... no longer just a biblical concept lol.
I am looking for a barrel for my 1895 nagant. ANy sources?
THanks
Thanks O

couple minutes, dude, u r doing something wrong :)
It's just like the SAA
One round more, one pound less, free barrels from discarded Mosins, and 20 years more of longevity of a single frame to an open top revolver
@@phileas007 Do the casings in the SAA also get stuck in the cylinder?
@@salvadorsempere1701 Best answer yet... thanks for the feedback.
Crazy mechanics

How many nagant revolvers in this world?Russian nagant,swiss nagant,belgian nagant,and what else nagants?
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
God bless all here

How much do you wanna bet that the Russian Revolver with less moving parts are more reliable than it's earlier Belgian counterpart?
Looks like the Russian has at least as many moving parts, if not a few more. They were both designed by the same guy, so I’m not sure why you would assume it is simpler and more reliable just because the Russians adopted it. Especially when they added a gas seal system.
Interesting taster.... check out the videos.
revolver is complicated
One is for Belgian cowboys, one is supposed to be suppressed for Russian operators.
⛩
pew pew , take that you tube!
A weapon that seems to have unconsciously effected Russian design for generations. Ugly but quite functional.
The 1883 is cooler
I'd take it if I was a postman.
🙂☕👍
