What is the value of a 1923 Nagant Revolver?

Answer 1

It's worth a little bit more being that it's a pre-WW2 model. A major Internet wholesaler is currently selling basic Nagants for $69.95 and "early dated" 1920's models for $91.95. So you'd be looking at around 90 bucks for yours. That's wholesale value, or what a gunshop would give you for it. Retail you'd be looking at about $150.

Answer 2

try ebay...no thats right they banned everything to do with a gun..mags and all....don't think they believe in freedom....so you better skip them.........yeah go ahead and skip them for everything if you believe in the Constitution .....!!

Answer 3

These are being sold on the surplus US market at wholesale prices below $60 per gun. Sorry, it's not worth more than $85-$95 today unless it's a very early (pre-WWI) model, or it has the original finish and grips.

Likely yours has been refinished (if it's a deep, dark blue) and has new grips (rough, checkered-cut reddish light wood).
Also, the target models with target grips and sights are worth some more than standard models.

That said, this is a very interesting military revolver that's well made and shoots well, although the chamber-by-chamber loading is a major PITA for target shooting or plinking. I cringe at the thought of some young Russian officer depending on this one in actual battle, where reloading could take you several minutes.

This is THE gun, by the way, that the term "Russian roulette" was coined with, by young Tsarist officers facing defeat and annihilation by the Communist Bolshevik Red Army. It was also used quite a bit by North Vietnamese Army officers and the VietCong during the Vietnam conflict.

Ammo is very available right now, buy a bunch, as it won't be around long.
