Swedish M1887 Husqvarna Nagant Antique Revolver

The Swedish M1887 Husqvarna Nagant Revolver is a rarer antique revolver since the original contracted order of 2600 Nagant Model 1887 to equip the Swedish Army was manufactured by the Fabrique d’armes Émile et Léon Nagant of Belgium, and the Husqvarna M1887 Nagant revolver was manufactured starting only in 1897 in Sweden.

This beautiful Nagant six shots double action revolver was using the 7.5mm Swedish Nagant cartridge.

There were only 350 of these revolvers manufactured in 1897, making this a very rare antique revolver for Canadian collectors.

American collectors have a better chance to get one of these real nice antiques since 5750 were manufactured before 1899, and many offered on the market are in excellent condition.
