Last Friday I found a 1941 Tula Nagant revolver at a local pawn shop. No import marks, finish worn, grips worn but serviceable. Although well used looking, it is still very tight.
Problem is, I bought a box of Fiocci Nagant 7.62 today, and when I went to load it to try it out, every round was as loose as a goose in every chamber. As in they would have fallen straight through if they could. Took the cylinder out, (cylinder matches) and it appears that the chambers have been expanded. From what I've read, I understand that there were some Sovieticon conversions to the 7.62 Tokarev round. Any truth to this? I have no Tok right now to see if they fit, so I was wondering if anyone had heard of this. Interesting old revolver!
