Nagant M1895: Russia's Most Famous Revolver

Today, the Russian M1895 Nagant revolver gets all the attention. We have touched upon this handgun in the past, but only in passing and in videos featuring other firearms. Not this time. This time its all about the M1895's history, military service, and variations.

Featured is an Imperial version (reworked by the Soviets), another from 1921 that hasn't been refurbished, and a third from 1941 with SAO trigger.
Also for comparison, we have a Swedish Husqvarna M/87 revolver.
And because we know many of you enjoy accessories/gear, we show both an earlier leather holster and a wartime canvis example.
