Nagant M.1883
The Nagant M. 1883 (still in SA), comes from the second production run of this model.
It differs from the first production run by its octagonal barrel (the earlier models had barrels rounded on their lower part).
The
cylinders of the second production run had a serial number, absent on the
earlier models and quite rare among all other Belgian Nagant revolvers.
