"The Nagant revolver, which I'm sure you know best as "that one revolver you can put a silencer on," is an inexpensive, reliable weapon that, while old, still offers something most wheelguns don't: a seven-shot cylinder, making it worth your time and money. But yes, if you really want to, you can have the barrel threaded at your local workshop. Its uniquely-designed action and the peculiar shape of the 7.62x38mm R ammunition are what allows the silencer to function correctly."

The Tula Arms Nagant M1895 (also called Nagant M1895, M1895 or simply Nagant) is a 7.62x38mm R Nagant revolver.

Maze Customs

Due to the particulars of this revolver (see below), the Nagant M1895 is one of only two revolvers on the roster that can receive the barrel threading service, alongside its snub-nosed counterpart.

Trivia

As hinted above, it is possible to mount a silencer on the Nagant M1895. This is a particular function of this revolver; upon pulling the trigger in double action, or upon cocking the hammer in preparation for a single-action shot, the entire cylinder moves forwards to align the top chamber with the barrel, creating what is known as a gas seal; no gases escape from between the cylinder and the frame upon firing. This fact makes suppressing or silencing this revolver possible, and it is aided by the design of the ammunition, with a bullet completely encased inside the case, instead of simply on top of it.
