Yeah, heavy trigger.
I read that even in single action it's still super weighty.

The single action trigger pull on my 1895 Nagant is heavier than the double action pull on most of my other revolvers. The double action pull is probably 25 lbs. All of this gains maybe 20fps. Plus you have to use special ammo, if you ever see 7.62 x 38mm rounds the bullet is actually crimped inside the case. The mouth gets blown open to seal with the chamber and barrel on firing. Which means it takes alot of force to pop out the fired case, and it doesn't have a very good ejector rod to begin with.

The 1895 Nagant is a super cool collectible, but it's probably the worst mechanically sound service pistol ever. I say mechanically sound only because of the Kenju T-94 and Glisenti 1910.

Never heard of the Glisenti 1910 before. I've heard of the T-94, the Japanese pistol that sucked ass

i heard the t94 can go off if you stare at it hard enough

That history channel episode about Japanese WWII weapons is my favorite thing in the world.
They guy kind of hesitantly pushes the side of the gun, and
BOOM!

The Glisenti 1910 was a 9mm pistol used by the Italian army in WW1. It was an automatic firing a 9 x 19mm round dimensionally identical to 9mm Luger, but significantly less powerful. The whole left side of the frame is cut away and covered with a plate, like in a revolver, to allow access to the working mechanism.

It's an inherently weak gun. Firing a 9mm Luger round in it can and will blow it up. Even with the right ammo, I wouldn't shoot one.

Yesh, reading that, I'd take the Japanese crap gun over this thing that would blow up in your face
