A gun is a gun, but after watching this I can see why Soviet Officers were keen to get there hands on the TT-33

Interesting comments. There seems to be a lot of people who think a 117 year old revolver design is slow and underpowered, that's a revelation to me, thank you guys for pointing it out. The Nagant comes from a time when swords and horse cavalry were military doctrine, yet this particular revolver is still popular with sport shooters and is probably the only firearm from that era that you can buy for about a hundred bucks (in like new condition) and still shoot safely. Think about it.

@Miata822 Excellent point. I have a Nagant and love it! But it is a very old design and it is what it is, no more, no less.

I really like my nagant. its a fun gun to shoot. but to reload rather than use the terrible. I just take out the cylinder shake it a little bit and load up 7 new rounds. Thats what my neighbor told me his grandfather did to reload during wwII. Apparently in his grandfathers unit in russia, the lucky ones got revolvers everyone else just got molotov cocktails

@spankyownz .32 H&R Magnum* in place of .357. Sorry, I got confused with another video I was commenting on. And 32-20 whinchester is another round my range buddy often compares it to.

@DirtyFrigginHarry Privi Partisan. Fiocchi ammo is under powered for the the round, and the "crimp" at the end of the round looks like it was done with a pipe wrench. Of course the only way to capture the true power of the round is to reload your own. This round was once compared to a .357. But so much like 10mm factory rounds, they aren't anything like they used to be.

What do you normally use for ammo?
Most people fail to see the advantages that the gun has over this one disadvantage. Yes it has a slow reload time, but it's accurate and reliable. You never have to worry about the cylinder alignment because the bullet doesn't need to jump the gap. It also prevents the escape of the propellant through the gap increasing muzzle velocity. Those facts aside, the gun truly is a collectors piece, it was made for a different time period. That doesn't make it shitty, it makes it historic.
