Any WW 1 Revolver Collectors out there?

[ARG]

Through estate of family military officer passed down 3 generations, have a Russian Nagant. Saw one just like it with all the same markings on Gunbroker with a buy in now price of $1800. Anyone know about these or want one? Can chat or send pictures if someone would like more info. From what I see on line from front sight design and markings it was made in the Tula plant in Russia around the turn of the century. Don't need it. Reasonable offers or just info about it appreciated.

Thanks,
ARG

A buy it now price of $1,800.00?

Was it gold plated or something?

Did not make it up. Actually still on Gun Broker for 6 more days. I figured it is worth 5 or 6 hundred. Just trying to get info on it so I can get some money for my son-in-law who lost his father who owned it.

I hate seeing firearms, especially old military arms, get passed down and then the heir selling them.

If that old rifle could talk, oooh the stories it would tell.

If you want some honest opinions then at a minimum we need some decent pictures. Until then I assume you are talking about the Nagant pistol as seen here.

And that one is only $425 with no bids as of yet.

Dang!

It wasn't all that long ago,,,
The Evil Pawn Shop had three sets like that.

They took several weeks to sell at $149.00 each.

Guys...you're comparing his fairly early, non-import (at least it should be) example to refurbished, late production, import marked examples. There will be a premium over the guns that we were buying for $125-$150 a few years back. I'm not at all current on the prices of Nagant's so I can't throw out a ballpark value on it. Best indicator would be to search the completed auctions on Gunbroker and not the current ones.
