koolness purple

Hellz yeah. =3

That's pretty cool. I know some people will blue the trunnions on their 1919s to try and get that color. Once I get myself a pistol permit up here, I'll have to get one of these, since they're still not overly expensive, and they're a pretty cool design with the gas sealing cylinder.

they're cheap, balanced, and work. Why not get a Nagant revolver? =3

I found Hotshot's full loaded FMJ rounds for that in 7.62x38r to be the best. The yellow-box Soviet target ammo isn't worth a damn.

.32 S&W long fires nicely out of them, but unfortunately the the cases get cracked muchly. Should you wish to suppress it with the Hotshot loads, any 9mm can will work quite well with it. Threading very inexpensive.

The .32acp kits are nice, but accuracy suffers however.

I've fired a few .32 S&W short rounds through it already and the cases don't usually crack. Instead the front end of the case expands to fit the cylinder. So even with that, it's possible to reload them if you're careful with the annealing process.

I don't think I'll be suppressing this one anytime soon since it's all original from 1944, including the cylinder. So I think I'll pass on that for this one. X3

It makes some noise XD

With .32 S&W, you'd be surprised on how quiet it is. Seriously, it sounds more like a cap gun!

Ps: SOVIET GUNS RULZ!

God I love revolvers, except for the noise and manual reloading feats they're pretty damn powerful, definately one of my things.

I could fit a suppressor to it to make it quieter (not that it needs to be even quieter in the first place) and I'm pretty quick with reloading this revolver after only a few times practicing. =3

Though highly prized by the germans and allies alike; they weren't actually that good XDXDXD

Still a very unique gun and this one is certainly worthy of note. =3

Do want!

Wish I had nicked a few of these back when they could be had for under a hundred USD. sighs

Yeah, though the shop I bought mine from still has one left. I think the tag said $250 last time I was there.

A wee much any more, Oh well.

I've seen SVT-40's with that color on the bolt carrier. I believe it's due to the temperature used during the bluing process.
