They also developed subsonic cartridges with a bullet that is flush to the case for silent firearms. They have an integral piston in the case that pushes the bullet out while keeping the gasses in, no suppressor needed.

@@Kolajer the next step should be the cartridge with no bullet. gas is still pushing the integral piston but this time the supersonic shockwave itself damages the target

@@Kolajer first weapon with same kind of cartridge was Gurevich revolver made somewhen around 1943 if im not mistaken. but there also was some sort of liquid inside the case that pushing bullet. it was attempt to replace Nagant revolvers with "Bramit" supressors.

@@dsheshin That's no gun, that's a hadouken! XD Honestly, it almost feels like Russia has been trying to create a silent deadly weapon for ages. They are already working on laser beam rifles for infantry. So, maybe they are finally close to that end dream.

ME: I want the bullet completely inside the case. LEON NAGANT: You know I have been meaning to try a gas seal idea with a bullet completely inside the case. ME: Say no more! I want a boatload of them, and I want them by Thursday.

Hi

Y’all hiring?

It did not, the word [наган] was a synonym only to the Nagant Revolver, but because there were virtually no other revolvers around in SU the word replaced the word revolver almost entirely. After 1990s, when some other models of revolvers (like U-94, RSh-12) were adopted, they were never called [nagan]. The same happened to other weapons in the army: [berdanka] for Berdan rifle, [mosinka] for Mosin-Nagant, [mauser] for Mauser C96, [maksim] for Maxim gun, [kalash] for AK family, [makar] or [makarov] for PM, [stechkin] for APS. Some other weapons have their own nicknames too: [shmaiser] for MP40 and [emka] for M16 family. Really, the only gun that influenced the entire weapons family name was Fedorov's "Automat".

​@@Itoyokofan I believe Daniel was talking about days of WWI and Civil War, when the world 'nagant' was colloquial name for any revolver or even semi-auto pistol, with notable exception of C96 - Mauser was "Mauser".

Since when did tissues become kleenexes?

@@nikitajukov4915 First time I hear that other revolvers were ever called 'nagants', actually. And if they were called occasionally, I don't think it was to the point of replacing the word revolver itself, unlike in other cases, where toilet bowl became 'Unitas', photocopy became 'Xerox', hydraulic cart became 'Rocla', etc. (all are company names).

​@@d33b33 'Kalash' sounds a bit vulgar in russian actually :D Some folk even call it 'Kalashmat'. Also there's a saying: "Do not show your pig snout in the pastery row" meaning "don't go where you're not fitted", where pastery row is 'kalashny ryad' (though I guess you know it).

Useing our calendar then?

To be even more precise, the translation should be "EMPEROR'S Tula weapon factory". After all, "императорскiй" sounds more like "belonging to the emperor", while "imperial" would be "имперскiй". On the other hand, the dictionary gives "императорский" as the second meaning of "imperial" (after "имперский").

The way that the tides of history wash guns, it certainly could have been Russian.

Same, sadly its not common anymore cuz, New gunpowder too much powerful for the gun structure

It is not the gunpowder it is just that we demand highest possible velocity. This style of action easily handles modern SAMMI spec smokeless loads in any of the special rounds or even 45 Colt. So the big factors are cost and market demands for more blast.

I think it's because Colt is a household name, and they are more recognizable to the average movie goer...

Peacemaker is far more aesthetic in my opinion, and the No. 3 never got a cool nickname like peacemaker, equalizer, hog leg etc that the SAA got. If I was living in the old west i'd carry a peacemaker for sure, just always preferred Colt to Smith and Wesson myself. Just like i've always preferred Winchester to Marlin.

Blame wholelyweird. I'm really tempted by a modern reproduction Schofield or two.

It might have to do that the S&W break-open top was not considered as strong compared to the permanent top strap of the Colt--Not that I ever heard of any S&W having a failure due to its design.

@@ScottKenny1978 Add the US Army. When Hollywood took off in the 1910s Army surplus SAA were dirt cheap because Army had bought so many and by the time the 1911 is around they were practically given away. Trapdoor Springfields and Krags show up a ton for the same reason in movies into the 1940s regardless of it making sense. That they were cheap and available is why the ships crew in King Kong carry Krags.

My guess is Nagant was easier and cheaper to produce, also having same caliber as rifles yet again to ease the production

watch the C&Rsenal video about the nagant. they explain that in detail. basically, the russians wanted to save money on ammunition.

Around 1890s the Russians realized they'd need a lot more handguns than previously - the rumblings of a major war and upheaval in Europe were already being heard... The 1895 Nagant was produced in large numbers to equip not only the Russian Empire's army and navy commissioned officers, but also the NCOs, specialty troops and even some infantrymen - the so called "soldier's" single-action-only version was retrofitted for that purpose. On top of that the vast numbers of the Tsar's police and the Gendarmerie, the Cossacks and other paramilitary groups needed handguns. The S&W had an obsolete round, was too big, too clunky to satisfy all the groups with conflicting requirements, and too expensive to arm everybody... In the end the arrangement was that the bulk of the force would get the 1895 Nagant, and the well-off officers would provide their own semiautomatic, often a Mauser C96, a Parabellum or a pocket Browning.

Ammo standardization, plus you can use mosin barels

According to what I briefly skimmed on Russian Wikipedia, it was mostly the weight. The revolver hasn't found much love or trust among the ranks it was issued to, due to the revolver being very rarely used, being quite heavy (1.5kg loaded), with considerable recoil, as well as the ranks being otherwise equipped for both long range (rifles) and close quarters (sabre, dagger). Being single action was considered an insignificant downside, as firing double action with that thing wouldn't prove accurate. The man writing about it suggests that it could remain in service for artillery men who wouldn't be weighed down by it. (funnily enough the loading gate of the M1895 was significantly less comfortable for cavalry)

So you just dump the cordite and all is good? Where did you suppose to throw the cordite away tho

J K back in those days for a major power like Russia, manufacturing your guns in house was pretty important to the higher ups. A national pride thing.

I agree J K. The 22 pound double action / 12 pound single action trigger pull of the nagant is reason enough to not adopt it.

@@cheekibreeki904 Colt and Smith and Wesson 1917s were compliant with WW1 military standards.

Lighter, since the Russian officer was required to carry pistol and sword at any time he was in uniform, even if off duty. It also used the same barrel blanks as the moisin.

@@cheekibreeki904 I disagree with being more reliable. I've always seen them to be finicky. I'd say less vulnerable to poor maintenance. Though definitely lighter and more durable. But that's not why they switched to it. They switched to it because it was easier to make. Even with it's awkward sealed chamber, it's a lot less complex than a No.3.

Reminds me of the MP412 Rex
