Thanks Joe. I'm very happy with this one. Right now I'm busy documenting the pistol. Next to taking various pictures that means trying to find more details, both technical and historical, on this pistol. This is something I like to do very much. I gather more knowledge and it makes my collection mor...

Thanks Miller. It's good to be back. I agree. It is a very nice pistol with a great history attached to it. I also like the operating system of this pistol.

Hello all. Went to a meeting of Dutch ammo collectors today. Along with some 7.62x54R, 7.62x39 and 5.45x39 ammo I found this little box. I do have a couple of Nagant cartridges in my collection, but this is my first complete box of military ammo. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a191/mosinnagant/Am...
