    I picked this up from MDeng's private collector. Thanks to Yellowsled for his help with it. :thumbsup:

    This was perfect timing as a Nagant revolver was next on my list. I still don't know much about them though. The serial number is 54480. There's a sideways 'P' on the right side of the barrel. The grips are in really nice shape. Is that lanyard original? What makes this a Soldier's Model? Any info you can provide is much appreciated. :)

    Sweet! My first C&R purchase (yesterday) was a nagant revolver! From what I've read the 1895 design was single action. Later they made double actions and issued the single actions to the enlisted and the newer doubles went to the officers. Nice buy- congrats!
