Really don't know anything about these things.
Bought this one on a whim. Looks like it may have some homemade grips on it. Someone was proud of them as they signed them. They left the body side smooth. Is it worth it to suppress these? Have a couple of 9mm cans already. Will have to look for some ammo. What's some decent stuff to get?  Attached File Attached File Attached File |

I dont own one myself but I have found them interesting.
For me it's one of those "so ugly it's cool and I like it" kinda guns. A thread dedicated to these would not hurt my feelings. I lurk around here a bit |

I wouldn't, mostly cause it is a less common year an no visible import and I don't see refurb mark on it and the parts that are visible match the arsenal. Before someone did those interesting grips good chance it was a factory original pistol.
Also while neat suppressed you need to take off the front sight, and the rear is not high enough to see over most cans, so if you do suppress it you are still going to need to add a raised site if you want to hit anything with it. |

Looks like it was cold blued or something as well.
I think suppressing a nagant is dumb, it's not really a good pistol to shoot, but go for it if you have something that fits it. |

I just wiped it down with some oil and that's my oil smear shining in the light. |

The import mark is there. Hard to see in those pics. It's actually tastefully done as opposed to some I see online. It's stamped on the barrel, kind of towards the underside, and not largely etched somewhere. It kind if blends with the pistol. There sure are a lot of stamping/markings on these things. Going to try to see if I can figure out what they all are.  Attached File |

I remember AIM Surplus was selling them for $90. Now they're in the $400 range. IMHO, I would look for original grips, and leave it alone.
If you really want a suppressed revolver, go for it. I've read they do well suppressed. |

If you really want a suppressed revolver, go for it. I've read they do well suppressed. I would like to suppress it but would feel bad about messing up a piece of history. That being said, there's millions of them. I kind of like my grips. I get the impression they were made a long time ago. It appears they are a bit bigger than the factory ones and fill out the hand more. They are staying. I have $250 into this thing. I thought that was a bit high but this was my second pistolen I purchased yesterday so I said screw it. I really don't see these for sale that often and the condition seemed good for 1936. |

Considering how horrendous the trigger pull is I'd say it's hardly worth it
 . Would be fun though just to have a suppressed revolver. |

I had one threaded. It sounds good suppressed. I wouldn't buy one at current prices and thread it but at $99 or whatever I originally paid for it I like it.

Given the gruesome trigger pull on these things I'm not sure they're worth the effort to modify. Ammo is getting pretty scarce as well. That one if pretty nice, I'd leave it as is. Maybe get some correct grips.
i had one. Bought it on a whim thinking it was kind of cool. Got tired of it in fairly short order. The shooting experience was decidedly meh. |

I wish I would have bought one of these back when they were $90, then $120, and then again $150. Then got out of C&R for awhile and holy crap did these sky rocket along with Mosins. Never fired one, though if I find one cheap enough I may get for giggles

The n is a post 50s referb mark, so it was indeed refurbished at least once. The x is a pretty common mark that shows up on refurbished guns, and is believed to be a component level inspection mark, in other words proof the inspector checked the component. |

Doesn't sound like anything special. Just got some ammo in for this. Going to test fire it and if it works, I think it will head off to the threader. Have to figure out how to remove the barrel. |

Well, tore that barrel up getting it off. It slipped around in the vise
Looks like shit now. Oh well, it's gonna have to work. Sending it off to get threaded. |
