Nagant Revolver

[z90HD]

Good day folks. I have taken a quick wander around the web and it seems that the nagants are sold out. I have not looked on Gunbroker but I'm looking for a current value on them. Reason is at this point I have commited to buy one for 210 and I think its a deal. Its a 1937 rearsenal import marked and comes with some ammo. Any help would be great and thanks Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk

Quick search on gun broker looks like $210 is a good price.  Looks like they have gone up quite a bit in the past couple of years.  More importantly, if you have given your word to pay an agreed upon price then you should complete the transaction, regardless of what it is actually worth.

I paid a lot less than that a year ago and a half ago, but like anything else that goes bang, there is a premium these days.

How much ammo comes with it? It's pretty spendy stuff so even at 100 rounds you didn't do bad IMO.

In November of 2012 they were still readily available from AIM at $99, those were the last big shipment of Nagants I've heard of coming into this country.  It seems the available supply of surplus has finally dried up, the only ones I know of now are those listed on the secondary market.  You find them priced all over the place, but $150-250 seems to be the normal asking price now.  As usual, WWI models are significantly higher.

Surely there are more of these in the same depots that the mosin crates are coming out of

Nagant revolvers were never as plentiful as Mosin 91/30's, and weren't regarded as highly as a "stop the capitalists' invasion" weapon as the trusty Mosin rifles were.  In addition, many of the Ukrainian depots are tapped out now, the primary exporter of 91/30's is now the Molot corporation in Russia, apparently they haven't entered the Nagant revolver business as yet.  It remains to be seen whether they will, and how much the current political tensions between the Russian Federation, Ukraine, and the Western nations has any effect on future exports of ex-Soviet weapons.

Thanks for the info guys. After I made my initial post I went and checked GB and it seems that I'm getting a fair deal. It comes with 6boxes of surplus ammo and half box of ppu ammo. I'm meeting with seller today. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk

My mind has changed on selling a couple of my MG's. September 2012 - $115 each, March 2013 - $169 each, today, over 200. Think Ill keep em.
