C&R sick

[NOTABIKER]

A retired LEO wanted to sell me a like new colt cobra 38 revolver made in the 70s. i was not interested even though the price was only 350 bucks. i finally lined him up with a friend to buy it. It was a beautiful colt pistol.
So what did i buy a 1895 Nagant revolver because i think they are neat. You can tell me all day what a dud they are . No matter i want one. And yes i have shot one. I am as excited as a school girl at prom night.

I'm just like you NOTABIKER. I've turned down many good deals on non-C&R guns simply because my heart lies with all things old and historical. Sometimes I kick myself for it, other times I'm thankful I saved the money to buy something more sacred to my interests.

And who is gonna tell you that a Nagant Revolver is a dud? I have two and they are very neat little handguns. I wouldn't trade them for anything because I know I'll have a hard time getting my hands on one for as cheap as I did.

Did I do a bad thing? I replaced the wood grips on my 1940 M1895 with the cool red starred grips just cause they're prettier. Not a bubba in my book since the wood grips are safely in storage.

[NOTABIKER]

Yes you broke a sacred C&R rule. even if the part unscrews and can go right back on you were very bad. got a pic of those grips i might want to get some.

just like a M 91-30 i bet that 1895 Nagant will never fail to fire single action with surplus ammo. that is the beauty of commie stuff.

My problem is that the '44 Izhevsk M1895 I picked up is so pristine, I don't want to fire it. Then I will have to clean it and it won't be shiny and new looking anymore ;-)

In searching for a picture, and looking at other examples, I guess my red plastic grips have only the diamond around the screws, but I remember they were exceedingly hard to find none-the-less. Eventually a saved eBay search alerted me to their availability.

I love my M1895, hate the price of ammo.

[NOTABIKER]

I need some ammo for one. even a little would do till i can order some from J&G. i pic it up next week out of jail. Have pity and sell me 20 rounds. i live in chino hills and will drive 30 miles for some . maybe i can pick up some at the gun show this weekend, i doubt it.

I would have bought the Cobra in a heartbeat for $350.

should be able to find some at the show, miwall usually carries Prvi stuff and if nothing else, somebody will probably have some surplus.

I work in Chino and have ammo that mine doesn't like. PM me somewhere to meet on Mon and we'll swap them

Amateur! A real gun whore would have bought BOTH!

[SVT-40]

Yeah Yeah Yeah... Were all sick.....But in a good way

As said above... Should have bought both!!!!

So you are not that sick YET........

At the time the colt was offered i was in the process of getting a 1918 danzig mauser and a M-39 finn. A man has to have his priorities. Believe me i am spending like a drunken sailor. At my humble level of cash flow.
