7.62 Nagant

[1$Chuck]

I'd never seen this round before. What a weird concept, to set the bullet completely down in the case. The rounds look like they've got foreskin for crying out loud. I saw the ammo and had to google it. Any of your guys got a Russian pistol and shoot those?

It was a weak round

I have one. 1895 Nagant revolver. Not a powerhouse by any means. Slow to load, remove empty brass, etc. Very strong double action pull. Not bad single action. They are pretty accurate though. With the cost of 7.62 Nagant ammunition, and absolutely no desire to reload for this round....I dont' shoot mine much.
With factory type ammuntion, it is one of the few revolvers that you could successfully silence.

Cheers.

I bought one of these pistols years ago. Very cool idea that didn't pan out.
There are .32acp cylinders for them. I've made ammo from 32-20 but lost the gas-seal
ability.... There were thousands sold for really cheap. Too bad somebody hasn't caught
on and come out with affordable ammo.
